Another from St Mary church in Plantersville. German and Polish immigrants built these "painted churches" mostly in Central Texas, but this one is close to Houston.

Recent outing with #USkHouston to St. Mary church in Plantersville, TX. A beautiful building, and a nice break from the city heat!

I kept seeing this imposing building in a residential neighborhood in Alvin, Texas, and stopped one evening to sketch it. It was once part of a manuscript museum system, then was bought by church, now abandoned again. I wonder what it will be next?

IMO, but only cheaper but better and easier. Since I switched, my waist bands are smoother, my collars are softer but still neat, and my jackets drape better. A line of basting stitches is faster than ironing and cooling, AND I don't burn my fingers or stain my ironing board.

Visited some Texas Wineries this weekend, and did some sketching while I sipped! This one was mid-construction on a new patio structure. Who doesn't love to sketch a bulldozer?

Sketching at Super H Mart with #USkHouston! This is a big, busy grocery store focused on the local Korean community, but it also has a big Latin food section. The produce section is amazing, and a fun sketch on a gray winter morning!

Ink and watercolor sketch of a museum interior, with a taxidermy sheep,  a mounted rhino head and other mounted heads,  and museum guests,  including children.   Three small insets with a toucan break,  a diving helmet, and a taxidermy porcupine.

#USkHouston met up at theUrban Sketchers met up at the Natural Science museum. I sketched in the "Cabinet of Curiosities" exhibit, a tribute to amateur enthusiasts whose collections led to the founding of modern museums.

I assumed it was more pointed - we (the white majority sitting in this room) were strangers. She was preaching to a pretty specific group of euro-americans.

Super cute top! I love everything about it - the pleats, the shape, the fabric, the top stitching, the buttons. What a great make.

My first post here! Finished a pair of Ponte pants yesterday and wore them today. This is a great little pattern - simple to sew and with front and back seams is easy to fit. #ClosetCoreCrewOnyx #sewing #garmentsewing

Where can I find the details? This sounds like a good challenge for me this February!

Me too! The #quiltsky group is great, but I'm looking for a garment sewing group that is similarly active.
