Assembly required

This morning I assembled my wonderful birthday present - my new easel. It is beautiful. I am so so so excited about it and all the beautiful things I can create. Somehow, I managed to get all the sliding parts to slide and adjusting parts to adjust, in spite of the pitiful diagram and instructions. It seems strange too that they would include two screwdrivers - full sized screwdrivers- with the pieces. Seems like such a waste. Maybe I should make something with all the screwdrivers I have now......another collection. You see how this happens, don't you?

I'm still working on the blue washcloth. Maybe it will be finished tomorrow. I'm hoping Mamaw and Mom will want to do some projects with me this week.
