Robots in Spring – Free Bee Pattern!

I’ve been doodling robots this week for some reason.  Not quite sure what inspired me, perhaps it was a silly shirt that my son bought last weekend.  I’m so ready for Spring that my robot doodles ended up doing different spring activities like picking flowers, flying a kite, and Easter egg hunting.  The more I drew them, the more I wanted to stitch them, so I made them into patterns. :)   I do hope you like them – just click on the picture to get to the pdf version.

I also got a watercolor kit that was on sale.  It’s called Paint with Jane (Seymore).  So, I opened it, got out the paper and paint, found a glass of water, popped in the DVD and went to work… following Jane’s instruction.  It was horrible!  I tried really hard, but my flowers just looked like ugly blobs on paper.  So, after 6 failed attempts, I started painting a doodle (robot again :D ).  It’s not great, but ya know it’s the best that came out of that watercolor experiment.   I’m not giving up yet, but geez I’ve got a ways to go…. LOL

    That is a fantastic first watercolor!

  2. Hmm, I can make watercolor blobs without any help from Jane Seymore. I think yours turned out great! The patterns are really cute but where are the Shrinky Dinks?

  3. Hilarious embroidery patterns! The egg-hunting… priceless.

    Your watercolor robot’s great!!
