Recently, my friend Martha and I got together and did some fun painting, Jamie Fingal/Leslie Tucker Jenison style, on cotton duck. Jamie and Leslie, together, teach a fun class called Musical Chairs: A Painted Canvas Adventure, and that class is what inspired Martha and I to paint.
The canvas we painted is eight feet long and 30 inches wide. We had a ton of fun with it and it took us nearly all day to do.

I took the entire length of cotton duck home and cut it up....wow, that first cut was very hard. From that piece of cloth I made two aprons, like the one in the next photo.
I also made two composition notebook covers and two mini padfolios. I even have a couple of small pieces of cloth left, that I will use for something, just haven't decided what to make yet.
Some day I hope to take Jamie and Leslie's class, to experience the pure fun of painting, musical chairs style.
