I drew this picture of patches thinking about when I was a little girl perhaps 7 or 8 years old, I had a pair of soft light pink knee-high socks that I absolutely loved. I wore them so much that I wore the heals out of them. Mom sit down with a couple small pieces of soft plaid material and patched the heals of my socks. I was so excited and happy. I wore them until they were so thread bare that Mom finally threw them away.
Wishing you all joy & success in crafting.

This little fishy in a fishbowl, I drew with sweet memories of when I was a child and won a goldfish with a bowl at the fair. I sure loved my goldfish and the joy of winning it on my own made me feel so grown up. lol Seriously, it was amazing how many of the ping pong balls bounced over the bowls of water. Year after year, we’d go to the fair and one of us kids would always bring home one or two goldfish that we’d win. After a week or so, we would put them in a gallon jar or our aquarium. Some of the goldfish lived for a couple years in our little farm pond.
I’m using one large piece of white fabric that I’ve sectioned off in 10 inch blocks. I did this because I intend to try to dye the blocks a light beige with rit-dye and hopefully it’ll resemble an aged fabric or a tea-dyed fabric. I think the large piece of fabric will be a more even dye and easier to handle.
