Hi there sweeties, it’s Wednesday so you were probably waiting for me to post my ‘deskphoto’… and here it is. I must say that I took this photo earlier this week; it’s my son’s jeans. He got this second hand jeans from a friend but there is a large wear spot on a rather unusual place. You would expect these spots on the buttocks but this wear (almost a hole) is exactly in the middle. My son asked me to repair it but every repair you make there would draw attention so I (we) decided to alter this jeans with several patches like I altered his jacket<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I purchased Japanese patches and some extra Sashiko thread in the English online shop that Jan (Lunch Lady Jan<\/a>) recommended and it came in last week. Aren’t those patterns and colours lovely?<\/p>\n

I chose patches in blues to go on the jeans and stitched with the sewing machine. Here’s how that looks…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(I notice a colour difference in the photos, I think the first ‘blue-er’ one is the most accurate)<\/em><\/p>\n

I started the Sashiko embroidery (you can see it on the pocket.) I will use the blue thread, and maybe the black, to keep it decent and not bring too much attention to my son’s buttocks \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

After I drew ‘eyes’ last week (thanks for all the sweet comments!) I kept on drawing… I’m went back to the EDM lis<\/a>t (“Every Day Matters”) and picked up the challenge where I left off…<\/p>\n

EDM #8 \u2013 Draw your watch or other piece of jewelry<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I got the perspective of the watch all wrong ( it should have been more of an oval) but hey it’s a good exercise. I try to keep it up with at least one drawing every week.<\/p>\n

Besides all the ‘projects’ I still create weekly art journal spread in my Chronicles journal and here’s two spreads I hadn’t published yet (click on the photos to enlarge.)<\/em><\/p>\n

The Chronicles of Marit 2018 – Week 35
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In week 35 I didn’t feel like working out my notes so I glued a pocket on the page to store the notes. The image on the postcard was created by a fellow artist Gerdi Zwaa<\/a>n. She is a sculptor who lives in my neighbourhood, I visited her in her studio.<\/p>\n

The Chronicles of Marit 2018 – Week 36<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

… and the Zetti-images keep showing up on my art journal pages.<\/p>\n

Thanks for your visit to my blog today, I hope to pay all deskers that leave a comment a visit back later this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
