Wednesday Night Comics

Child-free evening

 

In bed with Bert

I always loved this panel from my 'Charles Schulz is dead' comic – if you don't know the original and want to see it let me know and I'll try to find it and post it on Friday.

The stitching is a challenge. Still working it out. Persisting. It looks a bit funny but was very therapeutic. Thanks for the nice comments about Bert. Still trying to get myself under control but am getting there.

Controlling the weather

Why so glum, glummy?

Title from Bowb who wrote that very phrase to me on facebook. Thanks Bowb, and everyone else who invited me to whinge.

Twelve panels, about 30 mins, lots of complainin', one good drawing (flies panel), feel slightly better. Still sick though :)

The comic I couldn't finish

So, remember that comic that I was embroidering for the TINA comic exhibition in Newcastle in early October?

I only got this far.

I gave up for a number of reasons. It had become clear that I hadn't allowed myself enough time. I had decided that I had actually used an inappropriate backing fabric (ie damask) that was hard to embroider, would bleed and wouldn't hang straight. Oh and I was kind of having an emotional breakdown at the same time.

This is the plan that I was stitching to.

Even though it's unfinished it feels good to have purged myself of it. Now onto other comics!

Hopefully.

Oh and my sweet peas were just gorgeous and gave me so much joy! There are still a few stragglers out but most of them have gone to seed now. Will be collecting the seeds for next year.

Tongue is firmly in cheek of course (hope this comes across).

Is anyone ready to have the "I love James Kochalka but..." conversation with me? I'm too scared to say anything else for fear I'll be shot down in flames.

Wednesday Night Whinge

I think I'll go to bed now.

Wednesday night

No comic from me tonight, sorry (Kirsty). Air Crash investigations is proving to be far too compelling.

Ella did another one though!

(couldn't find eraser to rub out pencil lines)
