This week, I took my sewing machine to Tomorrow's Treasures Quilt Shop to have it serviced. While I was there, I bought some material to make the cushion Lucy was resting on. I wanted something bright that would contrast with the colors in Lucy and the background.
After piecing together the cushion, I hung her on my design board . She looked like quite the little pampered princess sitting on her cushion. I stared at her for the remainder of this week as I finally made my mother's promised tote bag with pockets for Mother's Day. Lucy's face bothered me. I just didn't like the sharp contrasts, so I added a little more light gray, readjusted the mouth, and replaced the black speckled material with light gray.
Her face still doesn't sit right with me, I will have to study it more this week and make further adjustments.

The students' last day was Friday, yeah! My last day is tomorrow!!!!
Digging through my picture files, I found this picture of the lighthouse in Cape May, New Jersey taken at dusk last December.
