This is a large drawing book that has been coptic bound. This binding shows off the spine and the binding.
This book is approximately 9"x7" and has (I think) 16 signatures. It required over 15 feet of thread to bind and took the greater portion of a day to complete.
The cover is some old paper we had lying around and the inside end papers have a similar look.
The paper inside is drawing paper that I hand cut, folded, and bound into this lovely drawing book.

Finally finished! It was a lot of work, but Sophia and Olivia are so excited to have the book done so they can play with it at home and in the car.
The book is 16 pages and is all hand-embroidered using the blanket, straight, and back stitches.
The pattern for this book is available in my shop. Please see my Flickr profile for the link to my shop.
This orignal ACEO is great for either the ACEO/ATC collector who wants to add a tactile piece to her/his collection or for parents who want to give their children art to play with. ACEOs are the perfect size for little hands to play with and enjoy...especially those who love to experience art through the sense of touch.
The flower is tri-colored using hand dyed and blended wool. The middle has shades of blue and purple with strands of sparkly material, the middle ring is a purple/mauve, and the outer ring is violet/purple.
The stem and leaves have two different colors of hand-dyed green wool.
The background is a light peach color.
The base is white, 100% sheep wool.
The design and background of the card are needlefelted with a single barbed needle.
It is the standard size (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") and is made with 100% sheep wool.
Please see my profile for more information.
This is for Olivia's alphabet book that I'm making for her. On each page there is an artist trading card (ATC) that I made as well as one that I have received through an on-going swap I've been participating in for several months now on Swap-Bot.
She took a peek at it this morning and was so excited with all the cards that are in there already. From now until Christmas, she will no longer see it so it will be a surprise (it is one of her Christmas gifts).
This card features:
- handmade paper background
- vintage image of a child riding a turkey
- torn paper for grass
- black tree sticker
- puffy "T" sticker

Potato stamps are easy to make and can provide hours of fun.
Learn how to make an adorable tablecloths and cushions cover for summer. Cut one or two of the potatoes in half and cut out a 3/4″ circle with a knife. You’ll want a few potato stamps so you can print with a few colors at the same time. Printing with one color at a time, place the paint on the plate so you can stamp the potato in it. Then start to stamp randomly throughout the print. Keep a scratch paper nearby to test it when the stamp has too much ink. It isn’t important that the stamping is perfect. They might be a little sloppy. Continue stamping with all the colors until it is all filled out.

Did you know you can make these lights from a strand of LED lights and muffin papers? LED lights don’t get hot and so it’s safe to add the muffin papers.
Paint inside and outside of muffin papers. I used media ink, it's dries quickly. Using craft knife, cut an X through the bottom of each muffin paper. Push a muffin paper over each lightbulb.
Easy and budget craft.

Tapestry is a form of textile art, traditionally woven by hand on a loom. Tapestry is weft-faced weaving, in which all the warp threads are hidden in the completed work, unlike most woven textiles, where both the warp and the weft threads may be visible. In tapestry weaving, weft yarns are typically discontinuous (unlike brocade); the artisan interlaces each coloured weft back and forth in its own small pattern area. It is a plain weft-faced weave having weft threads of different colours worked over portions of the warp to form the design.
Tapestry is relatively fragile, and difficult to make, so most historical pieces are intended to hang vertically on a wall (or sometimes in tents), or sometimes horizontally over a piece of furniture such as a table or bed. Some periods made smaller pieces, often long and narrow and used as borders for other textiles. European tapestries are normally made to be seen only from one side, and often have a plain lining added on the back. However, other traditions, such as Chinese kesi and that of Pre-Columbian Peru, make tapestry to be seen from both sides. Most weavers use a natural warp thread, such as wool, linen or cotton. The weft threads are usually wool or cotton but may include silk, gold, silver, or other alternatives.
Tapestry Room from Croome Court, moved to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, hung with made to measure 18th-century Gobelins tapestries, also covering the chairs. 1763-71
Tapestry should be distinguished from the different technique of embroidery, although large pieces of embroidery with images are sometimes loosely called "tapestry", as with the famous Bayeux Tapestry, which is in fact embroidered. From the Middle Ages on European tapestries could be very large, with images containing dozens of figures. They were often made in sets, so that a whole room could be hung with them.
The Triumph of Fame, probably Brussels, 1500s
In late medieval Europe tapestry was the grandest and most expensive medium for figurative images in two dimensions, and despite the rapid rise in importance of painting it retained this position in the eyes of many Renaissance patrons until at least the end of the 16th century, if not beyond. The European tradition continued to develop and reflect wider changes in artistic styles until the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars, before being revived on a smaller scale in the 19th century.
La tapisserie est un tissu fabriqué sur un métier à tisser ou bien à la main, dont le tissage représente des motifs ornementaux1. Le tissage se compose de deux ensembles de fils entrelacés, ceux à la verticale, les fils de chaîne, et ceux à l'horizontale, les fils de trame1. Les fils de chaîne sont mis en place sous tension sur un métier, et le fil de trame est transmis par un mouvement mécanique de va-et-vient sur tout ou partie de l'ouvrage. Souvent la tapisserie est une réalisation textile décorative d'ameublement, se classant dans les arts décoratifs. La tenture murale d'une pièce peut être constituée d'une seule ou d'un ensemble de tapisseries2.
L'art de la tapisserie existe depuis l'Antiquité, et beaucoup de peuples l'ont pratiqué : Grèce antique, Chine impériale, Égypte antique, civilisations précolombiennes. La tapisserie occidentale connaît un essor formidable pendant le xive siècle, illustré par la tenture de l'Apocalypse commandée par le duc Louis Ier d'Anjou.
Un grand nombre de tapisseries sont parvenues jusqu'à nous directement. Elles sont parfois grandioses (tenture de La Dame à la licorne conservée au musée de Cluny, tenture de David et Bethsabée4 conservée à Écouen, tenture Les Chasses de Maximilien conservée au musée du Louvre), souvent plus modestes. Certaines tentures sont disponibles en plusieurs séries (tenture de l'Histoire du Roy dont une série complète se trouve au château de Versailles).
More day 2: no pictures made today... so I am picking an old one. Starting to pack things, which means getting the mess organized first... sigh. Well starting on one end and simply continuing until you reach the other end. Creating categories also helps: definitely not, definitely yes (this skirt for example!), for-throwing-away (why did I not throw these away in Diemen already!?!), summer clothes, winter clothes.... the last ones can come in bag nr. 3 in november with Jolanda. Bag nr 1 and 2 come travel with me. Bag nr. 3 had to be finished to be taken to Jolanda... but was not finished until the next morning! Lots of laundry, Veerle visiting for tea, emails, sms messages, lots of things in between. To cheer me up: Zumba!! @ the gym at 19h. Show them a bit how to move hips! hihi :) Strange time if you're used to workouts in the morning. Getting home, thinking I lost my keys... searching searching (even driving back to the gym, and tripping in the garden - flat on my face hurting my knee and damaging my favorite jeans...!). Hate not having a routine in this house! Losing things all the time!! Then off to the gas station with 2 cars, getting both of them filled up, the Daihatsu for returning to Stasja, the big one for taking me to Jolanda on Saturday, to deliver bag nr3. Getting back late, more texting, no chatting... Going to bed late. Waking up a few times, strange night.

The bottom part of plastic bottles can be perfectly used as dessert bowls. Cut the bottom part of the bottle and use a candle to remove any imperfection (only burn the edge gently for one second). I used some Media Ink to decorate my party bowls. Use it to put fresh fruit salad with creamy custard. This craft idea is so simple and easy to make and very cheap.

This is a hand-embroidered felt coin purse featuring the cherry blossom and branch.
It is made with lavender and green felt for the purse.
The branches and cherry blossoms are hand-embroidered using the backstitch and chain stitch.
I saw a coin purse on Flickr with a similar design, and was inspired to create my own version using a coin purse pattern that I've used before.
This was made for the "Flower of the Month Swap - March." I chose to focus on the cherry blossom since it is such a beautiful and delicate flower.
This was sent to Keti through Swap-Bot.

This snowglobe ATC is clear, and when you shake it the glitter moves around. It's kind of like a snowglobe, but without the water. Oh, and it's flat (not a glass sphere).
This card has:
- a wet-on-wet watercolor base (though most of it is covered by the image)
- an image and text that were cut from fabric and glued onto the watercolor paper
- a hand-colored back done in red with a tiny snowman face image (also from fabric)
- white, clear, and blue glitter
- a plastic exterior (made from a ziploc bag)
- red thread used to machine-sew around the edges
This artist trading card (ATC) is for the ATC Beginners October Swap. The theme this month is "Seasons."
This card is being traded with linaconde and will be mailed in early October once she moves to Japan.

This is a little lion that I hand-embroidered on one of Olivia's shirts. She loves lions. I swear if she could, she would be one.
She picked out which shirt she wanted me to embroider it on. It's very soft and more of a knit-type shirt with tiny holes in a pattern. Needless to say, it was a bit more challenging to work on than, say, cotton.
She's so happy to have a little lion on her shirt now.'
Here's the link to the pattern: tangarangblog.blogspot.com/2009/02/thursdays-download-emb... . There's also an elephant, giraffe, and abstract shapes.
