This shows machine embroidery on to a sandwich of chiffon, knitting and a cotton base.
The wool fibres of the knitted piece have been trapped behind the chiffon, but when I burn away the chiffon with a heat gun, some of the fibres will spring back.
This shows a close up of the machine stitching. I have put a layer of chiffon over the velvet which has been embellished with embossing crystals.
Some of the crystals are very thick so I avoided stitching over them.
I will now burn away the chiffon with a heat gun.

Since the release of Sayuri I've been working on a softer skin again, a softer version of Eva if you will. Though I try to make my skins look "real", I find my personal preference fighting that all the way, and I want to stick to the handdrawn/pastel look.
For the interested: The bikini is from Artilleri and the hair is from Fri.day
getting ready to tie in another thread & work the 4th pass, then the beaded band will be rolled together and woven into a round rope
some beads for another project have started sneaking onto my work tray (pretty pink porcelain donut)
BUT now i'm going to crochet, I think I will finish my green scarf today. I don't feel any real urgency to finish this beadwork, just enjoying the process, very zen.
I started to sculpt my first ball jointed doll 6 years ago. He is not finished yet. But I'm going to finish him in Zbrush (to sculpt missing parts and joints).
I am re-visiting stumpwork and I have unearthed some old pictures from a time when I used to teach this subject.
I have put aside my womens' suffrage studies to ready myself for the General Election which should be in the early part of this year.
I have always made a piece for the Election, and this year I thought that I would revisit stumpwork and in particular the padded faces I used to embroider. These would be interesting made into political jewellery.
Watch this space!
I sat for two and a half hours last night, painting the watercolour paper with water and rubbing it with my finger.
This had two results: it broke up the surface of the paper, so that the paint will sink in, and it gave a distressed effect to the whole piece.
Also, my finger was sore!

It was whilst I was waiting for paint to dry on another project that I spied an abandoned canvas in my workroom.
I coated it with tissue paper, acrylic paint and gesso, and then added various paint effects on top.
After sanding it with a sanding block I added tea stains, buttons and dyed lace.
This canvas will hold my collection of "glitzy" necklaces and is destined for my bedroom.
It is a work in progress as I have lots more memorabilia to add.
