a sushi tray unfit to be eaten from as the oils in Zircote are toxic. It would damage the paint as well. [EDIT] No actually it is not toxic at all, The oils are just an added irritant to the lungs when working it. oops. And it is ziricote, double oops.
torbellamonaca è un quartiere periferico di roma. situato oltre il grande raccordo anulare, il quartiere appare estraneo, più di altri, dalle dinamiche e dalle connessioni con la città. nei suoi palazzi è condensata un'umanità precaria, talvolta illegale, spesso alle soglie della povertà. tra le sue mura, a tratti carcerarie, si aprono varchi che conducono a inaspettati giardini, biblioteche, centri di aggregazione. in uno di questi varchi si è inserito il Laboratorio Museo di Arte Sperimentale de "Gli Amici", supportato dalla Comunità di Sant'Egidio e diretto dalla giovane Maria Carosio. Parte da qui la nostra esplorazione nel quartiere.
Been stretching tea-stained watercolor paper over wood framing.
The large one is 16"x20" and the small one is 11"x14"
I've been working steadily on my next exhibition piece which is entitled "Brexit - the first lie"
The background fabric is a piece of distressed black denim and I'm adding slits to this to denote the cracks in society caused by the result of the referendum.
These slits are backed with fragments of old paper which I machined over, coloured and varnished.
They will be eventually "papered over"
This shows the reverse of the fabric before the spare paper was torn away
These were treated with the crackle medium which didn't work at all. It also left the image very hard and shiny so it was difficult to crumple.
I will have to look for another use for this product.
OK, so I've got one-fourth done. It was actually kind of fun! I'm just using some random scraps, some Parisville, some AMH, some Heather Bailey, so it's going to be a serious mish-mash of fabrics, but I'm just trying it out for my bee peeps - I think this is what I'm going to ask for next month in the {Sew} Beautiful Bee...now if only I could decide on some fabrics...

Chris McConnell’s current work, being created at Chelsea Flower Garden, includes these butterfly-inspired structures, which are made from recycled steel and will hold hanging baskets.
WIP - experiment in making a corsage from scraps of furoshiki fabric - needs a button or something in the middle and a ribbon or pin on the back so it can be fixed to a furoshiki bag
I am leading a workshop called "The Book Artist as an explorer" and as a result I have discovered some treasures which have been hidden from view for a while.
I am now inspired to carry on with some work which has been left unfinished for some time
I finally got back to this quilt I've been making for Clark, buckled down and did the main piecing of it. This has been a total bear of a no pattern quilt in that there are variable lengths and widths--all to incorporate the different sized fussy cut robots. I can't believe it actually looks pretty much like I wanted it to.
