Doodle Away Series: Using the Best Tools

Our family is getting ready to be transferred and because of that I have been painting and cleaning and organizing rather than quilting. I find at the end of the day I just need a little but of quilting time, but can’t get to the long arm, so I have been doodling at night as my unwind time. I want to share some of my doodles.

My pearl of wisdom for this doodle away series is to record what writing utensil you used for that particular doodle and score it out of 10. This way you are allowing yourself to find optimum tool for your craft.

I love how drawing one thing leads to another which leads to another, I love these snowmen.

I’ve cracked the code on permanent weight loss!

After spending the past 25 years riding the nauseating roller coaster of weight loss and gain with its accompanying negative self talk and discomfort, I knew I needed to help others achieve the same results.
