Stress drawing ..... the alternative to stress eating !!

Good morning Blogland Neighborhood ! Well, the stressed out Paperwork Dept here at MBIAJ Headquarters has lapsed into





drawing (drawing the pictures of the junk food they'd rather be stress EATING that is !!) So, drawing then ......



.......coloring (VERY therapeut-ic !) .....


.......and more coloring .... until .....



......it's all done .....and now it's time to ....




...piddle around some more and pick out fabrics to make a quilt block out of this drawing ..... or.... maybe it should be an embroidered block !!! What do you think? (appliqued or embroidered? ) Procrastinating minds want to know! ......and MAYBE the Sewing Dept will have time to work on this next week because the Moonbeams family is heading to the Jersey Shore for a VACATION !!! (and the Moonbeams Mama doesn't even care if it rains because she plans on taking plenty of sewing projects along ..... sort of like her own little "sewing/quilting retreat for one" .....she's thinking she MIGHT even invite ...



...Betty !!!











Be back soon ! (with a full report from the shore! )

Toodles,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)

how about sticking that banana split quilt block right square in the middle of my summer quilt. oh i'm sorry there are a few quilts in front of mine that would also like a shot at some of that summer sewing. just looking out for my fellow breathren. someone has to protect them from the evils of the new fabric that lurks in every corner of that pink room of creativity!!!!

That would be a GREAT applique. (For me, the drawing would only make me hungrier for that particular item...you must have more willpower than I have!!!)

Have fun Mare! Love hearing it called the "Shore." Down here in SFL, it's just the plain 'ole "Beach." Don't forget to pack the sunscreen!

Your "banana split" looks better than the real thing! Embroidery would be really nice, but my vote is for applique' :) I'll be anxiously awaiting the finished product no matter which method you choose.
