My additions since yesterday are
One of these (not entirely happy with it) I don't know what's all over it in the picture but I can't see it on the real thing.
3 of these (not entirely happy with these either)
You may think I didn't do too bad for just one day. If you knew the whole truth you would change your mind. I had all the flowers done and the cans covered, I just had to put them together.
After I got these done I did a little experiment and came up with this
So I'm blaming my progress, or lack there of on the grumpy mood that I put myself in today. Tomorrow morning Wade will go off to work, the house will be quiet and I'm going to get busy.

You are way to hard on yourself.
And that dog looks like your little one!
I think you made great progress today! Of course I love the little Duke!
Hi Ann, your problem is that you expect WAY too much of yourself. You have SO much talent... Just relax and enjoy it... IF it is a burden and you are never happy with what you do, this will not work for you... Happiness and enjoyment are much more important...
Love the little doggie.
Hugs,
Betsy
It's Duke, you made him!!!! And I love the top thing, is it a box? I would buy it, so pretty!!!!
I love the little duck with the bullrush ....
Do tell though, are the sunflowers resting in beads, if not, what magical method are you using?
By the time I scrolled down to the dog, I think I must have felt peckish for I kept thinking this would be wonderful made in rolled marzipan!
Just a little extra note for those of your readers in the UK - I actually found quilling materials in 'The Works' bookshop. (These, I believe are situated throughout Britain and so far are the only place that I have seen quilling material available for purchasing.)
Gads... is he ever CUTE! I mean that!
These are all ADORABLE!!
I was trying to decide which I liked best - which was a silly thing to do - I like them ALL...
All of those look adorable! Hit the coffee tomorrow and get in overdrive, LOL!
I have to agree with Betsy. Have fun and let loose. I really like the top one--is it a can?
And your photos are so awesome I can see the magnets and cards (are you doing cards of your photos?) doing well.
And we all have those days where we just don't get it done. Thank goodness tomorrow is a new day!
Ahhh.. the lil white westie in the end is the best :) but the others are not too bad either. A well spent weekend i must say.
That's a GREAT start Ann - and, believe me, you'll achieve wonders without hubby under your feet!
Have you considered having your quilled Scottie watering your quilled flowers? It might open up a new market for your products?
Ann, those flowers in the tins are ADORABLE!! These'll sell like hot cakes!
they all look good to me. I think my favorite is the flowers in the cans. the dog looks like duke. you will do better today with your alone time. it is hard to do things when the men from mars are home. have fun and I agree you are to hard on yourself. we are all our own worse critics.
Ann the doggie is so beautiful . Dont let Duke get jealous and eat it!
You are doing great!!! No more negative talk, woman! (Aren't you REALLY glad you appointed me your motivator?)
I think they look gorgeous! And I absolutely love the paper Duke.
My goodness - you are tough on yourself! I think these look great. Love the sunflowers especially. The paper Duke is adorable!!
Don't be so hard on yourself! I think all of those are adorable.
Oh my stars girl. You never stop amazing me with your craftiness.
Wishing you a beautiful August!

Wade didn't take vacation too. Well perhaps that's a good thing.
I love all that you've done and I love the dog. That's way cool.
Have a terrific day and vacation. My best to Duke. :)
Love ALL of these!
Now, You're suppose to be Enjoying your time off!! Put all your work aside, call a friend and Get Out There!Lolol
hughugs
Please, don't be too hard on yourself (this coming from someone who does the same thing), I think they look fantastic!! I don't see anything wrong and I'm sure that those who will be buying them won't either. I would also include the scottie dog you made. Just put it out there for giggles...guess what? I bet someone would buy it.
Amazing work, I love the little duck on the pond.
OH. MY. HEAVENS! You've made a westie pup :) I adore it. Now have you got an Etsy shop or anything? Because I adore that magnet of Duke, AND that westie pup you've quilled. Hmmmm....I wish I was closer to this craft show of sorts you are going to.
And I know you have lots to do, but remember...this is also your vacation :) You can't work THAT hard!
I love the duck in the pond. Everything is very nice.
These are sooooo sooooo cute. You did a great job on each one - love all of them tfs!!!
I love the bird on the water and the flowers in the pots but your Duke quilling is fantastic....glad I could inspire you.
Look another Duke. That is so cute. I really like the little bluebird too. At least he has a blue head. We think it all looks great. Take care.
