Yesterday I was out and about with Mom and Dad. For lunch we pulled over by the side of the road to eat some sandwiches Mom had brought along. We had a greeter:
Dad said he was the sentry quail. Good thing we weren't planning on going down to the beach.
I've been working on a feather for Jude's Magic Feather Project.
My first feather is a phoenix feather ( I love "32 Flavors" by Ani DiFranco in which she refers to a phoenix). The base is the first cloth that I tried batik with plant dyes. I used a cork to make wax moons and onion skins for the plant dye.
The color is quite a bit paler then when first dyed as it took a fair amount of heat to remove the wax.
Beginning again...continuing.
