Textile craft for an international fan project sending well-wishes to mangaka Kazuya Minekura -- yes, that's creepy Dr. Nii's poor little bunny plushie, looking rather the worse for wear! Applique, machine embroidery, fabric marker, with buttons, ribbon, safety pin and band-aids for 3-D effects.

One of the first patches I made, very simple design and it turned out pretty okay.

A little further in the process.

This frame takes one hour to finish.

mom made me a grocery tote, big and roomy, with crazy chickens on each side.

Still needs more to cover the ink. Will have to add the second layer/color.

you need a cozy place to nap after all that trick-or-treating (or burning down villages, whatever)

free motion embroidery, gouache, and metallic watercolor on canvas

Just another way to use this cute pattern of a ladybug on a kitchen towel of sunflowers. The design is from smartneedle.com. No I don't get anything for recommending them just satisfaction that they have a great site and good designs.

I absolutely adore the Yorrick design from Urban Threads.

I turned it into a drawstring bag - www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37456301

This all started with the placemat with the light strips made by the Tutwiler Women Quilters. First, it was coordinating napkins, then 2 more placemats, then a table runner.

I could think of what to put on this circular purse at first, but then my mom suggested the simple phrase, "Piss off!" and I fell in love with the idea. Etsy

I think the small splash of blue covers the blue ink nicely!

Free Design from Husqvarna Viking.

Machine embroidery on the flap of this freebie sports bag (given away at Mets game 8/12/07).

A cushion cover to take to Materialise, a lovely sewing shop in Edinburgh (www.lovematerialise.com). I made it as a sample to show to participants of the 'Free-hand machine embroidery' workshop.
