my newest cross stitch that i am working on. i know the picture isn't great, but i remembered i keep forgetting to show this to people. it's about 3/8ths done.
Getting started with the Unsquared Baby Throw, a free (with registration) Lion Brand Yarn pattern. Using Caron Simply Soft Brights and a 4mm hook.
I took a quick picture tonight - while it was snowing again! - as you can see, there doesn't seem to be a lot of difference between the blue and the black but I think I will leave it as is. Happy with his eyes, they remind me of him.
Grease Alley, an industrial backwater neighborhood in a blade-runner/fifth-element genre. These shops back onto a trash and old parts-strewn gully, where the junk skiff comes by to pick up broken components, industrial leftovers, and the occasional "borrowed" part.
A snowy day in the studio decorating fabric and paper.

This is a tiny 6" deer skull I found at a shop. Covering it up with tiny tiles. Plan to give it to my father for Father's Day to put in his "man cave" where the computer is.
Tyranid Carnifex & Capillary Tower. I've not yet glued down the minature plastic tyranid terrain on the Capillary Tower base. I intend to get some greenstuff and create some ropey vines/tentacles surrounding the base of the Capillary Tower to give it a higher "ick" factor. This Capillary Tower vs the previous photo shows the addition of a spine ridge on the largest Tower, and a smaller tower without spine ridges. In progress.
I belong to the exhibiting group "Adhesion" which is mentored by the wonderful Angie Hughes.
We are trying new ideas to help us free up our thinking and our current project is proving rather difficult to translate into anything concrete.
The idea is to sit for two ten minute sessions in silence, and record the noises heard, using any means you chose. One ten minute period should be in a quiet envoironment, and the other in a quiet one.
These recordings have to be translated into a visual form.
Here I have bonded silk on to a cotton background, and then I have cut the silk with scissors into similar squarish shapes and glued these on to a watercolour paper background. I have turned some of the squares round so that the light catches them in different ways.
Now I have to decide how to represent the noises I heard!
This is a large watercolour pad measuring about 18inches by 12 inches
patchwork furoshiki - made from off cuts from fabric used to make other furoshiki and display curtains - hence the metal ringed holes

It has been a few weeks since I've worked on wood. I'm glad to be back. Here is a sneak peek of what I am working as a submission to the "Lipstick & Rouge" show @ Second Space in Spokane.
Close up of the painted calico circles sandwiched between two layers of printed tissue paper. The resulting "fabric" is rather stiff, but still workable
