Beautiful! The sky blue beads are a perfect accent! Big Squishy Hugs!
mounting embroidery on stitched paper
Following this sampling I decided to switch from cloth to paper as a means of displaying and also protecting my litle stitched samples. I am happier although the Ruane mind is hovering over another change of plan, yikes, make your mind up Karen. The advantage of paper as a mount is it's ...
Such beautiful work!
still on an artist book theme...
Embroidered white paper, a page. I'm still on my artist book path after yesterday. There are now several of these embroidered white pieces and I'm trying very hard to decide how to combine them into artist book form. There's no rush, I'll take my time. These pieces need something light as prot...
That tiny touch of color with the beads is just beautiful! It's just enough to add a little pop to the piece. Your work is so lovely! Thanks for not just sharing, but teaching how to add amazing embellishments to our sewing projects. Big Squishy Hugs!
four pieces
These four pieces have kept me busy over the past week or so. One of them, the paper piece, is something we are working on in artist book class. The other three pieces are embellished 'overlay' pieces. I am unsure what will become of those but I have a hankering for an all white ove...
Thank you for your quick response to my concern about pulling on the loops. You made me laugh with your logic. And, I needed that laugh today. Thank you again for sharing all your beautiful fabric/sewing arts with us! Big Squishy Hugs!
a little follow up
I made a very short video to answer a couple of points which arose from yesterday's video where I demonstrated 'guilloche stitch''. I hope it helps.
That is a very beautiful stitch! Is there a way to secure the loops so if one were "pulled" it wouldn't mess up the design? I know it would be an easy fix to straighten the design and even out the loops once again. I'm asking because I tend to be a klutz and get all tangled up in my threads. I can see myself finishing a project using this stitch and then hooking a loop on one of my rings and boogering the entire thing up.
I appreciate your sharing your beautiful art with us and teaching us new ways to embellish so many of our projects! Thanks!
Guilloche stitch
During the first 'embroidery school' of this year we learnt a lot of new embroidery stitches. I had hoped to continue exploring new stitches after class finished but failed miserably. Today I start to put that right. Guilloche stitch. This stitch certainly fits the definition of the word 'guil...
Your work always amazes me! Your fabric art is so beautiful and inspires me in so many ways! Thank you so much for sharing your art with us! Big Squishy Hugs!
whites and little ball buttons
Seven little hand made ball buttons threaded on ribbon purely for safe keeping. (each of these has a hand stitched shank/bar for use when attaching to cloth or paper) These little things can roll and roll and I didn't want to lose any. I can't believe it's taken me all these years to r...
Always a delight to visit your site and see all the beautiful works of art you create! Sending you Big Squishy Hugs and Blessings for the New Year!
samples and pages
I couldn't help myself....yesterday, when I said I needed samples for the new cloth book? Well the cloth piece here is the first one but obviously I can't put it in until the book is finished. I best crack on with that then.... The other piece here is the latest page I am working on for ...
Your work is so beautiful. So inspiring and makes me want to start doing some sewing. But, right now, I'm a bit busy getting caught up on other art swap projects. LOL! Perhaps I'll start nagging my daughter to do some sewing for me. Hee hee hee! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful works of fabric art! Hugs!
yesterday.....
The ironing board was out yesterday...not for pleasurable things sadly but as it was there I turned it into a thing of joy as opposed to an instrument of torture and pieced some cloth. Why not? May aswell. This big piece, and it is big, will be divided up and turned into pin ...
How beautiful! I've never been disatisfied with any product I've ordered through Red Lead.
