Mold making :-))

A peek at the rest of the Pocket Stufflings:)

I'm so glad I remembered this pattern from the wacky Australian quilting magazine I bought almost a year ago because it's perfect for Rouenneries.

Looks good

Just a spray-painted PVC-tube. Cut a piece out the back to route the cables through. Looks good if you ask me!

this is how i plan to scale the universe

thinking of the composition

Mica showing for the first time.

I'm running a workshop tomorrow and this is the mess I've got into whilst preparing the session.

You should see the laundry and the kitchen too- I've been spreading myself about somewhat.

Still working on it, but I think this should about do it. Allows for nearly full range of articulation, and for the armor layout I like without inhibiting joints.

Changed the knee, elbow, and ankle confirgurations. Also redid the forearm armoring and skirt armor mounts slightly. PROGRESS!

"in action", sorta

and some shadow

These flowers were made from painted non-woven interfacing with centres of dyed kitchen sponge. The flowers were waxed with acrylic wax before they were sewn to the waistcoat.

I was given a sheet of magazine scraps which had been applied to a background in a haphazard manner and was asked to use this as a source of inspiration!

I find this sort of challenge VERY difficult as I usually work to an idea, not an image.

After a mild panic I decided to gesso the whole page in an attempt to tone down the images and then I used it to create a folder which I then die cut and embossed.

I then grabbed the scrap bag and started to machine embroider images which started to leap from the page.

This is one sample.

Not sure I'm loving the pink wedge - I did a light and dark of each color, and my thought was that light red is actually pink, but I'm not sure I like that. Maybe a darker pink would work better there...

Lots going on in the studio on this wet and windy day.

I'm experimenting with some further techniques using tea bags. These are drying on some sketch book paper and they are leaving some interesting marks.

If you join two motifs together.... you get a bishops hat!! Hah.

There must be someone, somewhere who needs a miniature bishops mitre.

What if you used these motifs to create flower trumpets for an exotic flower, or even make them larger and create a bag?

Shown here on top of my Jenny Oliver chest of heads, and with my Orkney triptych.

A convenient ledge for work in progress.
