This is an image of block 8 of Melody's Ode to Boone Crowe Quilt after she had added batting and the back to the quilt and basting the three layers together with thread and quilting safety pins. This image was captured at the end of April 2015. The corresponding Work In Progress - WIP - in the previous slide was taken a month earlier.

STROBIST: SB-800 rear right the object, camera flash for slave.

 

Pardon, I'm really NOT a still lifer: for better works see The King of Lights stream.

 

Chiedo scusa, non sono uno still lifer: se volete vedere molto di meglio guardatevi lo stream del King of Lights.

I used this rough sketch to inspire the first figure I embroidered.

My current project. I'm just adding bits as I go along with minimal planning. Something I can do in front of the TV!

I decided to have a bit of fun and make a wacky handbag. This is the first stage.

I went to a scrummy shop in Much Wenlock ( Ippkin... www.ippkin.co.uk) and bought some Colinette yarn ( www.colinette.com) and a shell button in a wonderful deep yellow colour.

I then used a pair of 20 mm needles to losely knit a rectangle, which I will now weave with strips of knotted fabric and other strange things.

Watch this space!

A snowy day which I spent in the studio decorating fabric and paper.

This piece of newspaper was underneath the fabric to protect the table whilst i was painting.

I used it to stitch into and then crumpled and rubbed it until it shrunk

the good man artists' book - finishing the last 5 of the edition.

2010 project, taking control of the boardwalk garden

I was initally excited about stitching up this lady. Now I am mad at her. Perhaps it was the changes I made? Maybe I shouldn't have given her cleavage, or changed her head covering into hair? Maybe I need to shut up and just keep stitching until she looks nice.

To finish him up - sew the red buttons on the hat to make a flower, sew the hat onto the head, sew the head onto the body.

 

Our Daily Challenge

Work in Progress

11/10/2021

Underneath all those paper scraps are my angry, stressed-out words.

 

Made for Dawn Sokol's Art Journal Stimulus Project. (www.dblogala.com/)

mixed media collage works, in acrylic. I have been burning it up lately, and these are stages of works in progress. eventually i want to make time lapse gifs.

 

this painting lasted a little over a week on the gallery walls before someone bought it.

This is a return to previous work that begins with a single, large, pinch pot that is closed and joined at the rim, forming a kidney-shaped balloon. As the piece approaches the leather-hard stage, the whistle/fipple parts are assembled and the tail (tale) is appended to the opposite end.

 

With the smaller tone chamber, achieving a solid tone and cutting the four holes for fingering is much easier than the larger, upright pieces of recent work.

 

I need to put some thought into how this type of instrument could be displayed...perhaps from some sort of companion-piece, plate/peg design on the wall.

Air drying clay on a lap tray.

I'm starting to make some cards.

I have now stitched two sheets of Polish newspaper in a random grid pattern. After stitching I rubbed the paper for a while to shrink it and to break down the surface. This means that it will accept paint more readily.

work in progress at studio

Thinking about the fabrics combination and the possibilities... I'm not sure yet...

pendant-to-be: polymer clay, amazonite

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.

Midori szerűség készül.

 

I made this planer for me. Other pictures are in the same album.

The start of a new project.

There is a process which is inevitable.

This is:

The sorting of the threads.

The cleaning of the sewing machine.

The winding of the bobbins.

The clearing of the work table.

And finally, the thorough washing of the spectacles!

A very rare day alone, which I am setting aside for stitching and gardening. More of the former I hope.

possible submission to Lucy May Schofield's BABL project; another book in the she said/I said series

36"x48" - work in progress

Preparing the canvas - at last. Months of research have led up to this moment. I'm almost scared to start

New castings from my workshop in silver - for ear cuffs, cuff links, rings and brooches. Finally, 'Stiffy' the wee prototype skeleton was finished, a mould made of and 'sons' were cast. He is the darkest skeleton on the right: The silver blackens slightly when a vulkanised rubber mould is made, due to the heat involved.

I started on Amber a week ago and just picked her back up. You can see where I've already ripped out part of her head and am starting over. As always, the dark colors aren't photographing very well.
