Struggling with the whole magenta color! When taking this I thought it was magenta-ish. But now it looks purple! No outdoor photo for me today. So I used a metal cookie tin as my background and thread on a vintage bill stacker.
These are peruvian style earrings with part of my girlfriend soul and art.

This is a tatting shuttle that I bought from Georgia Seitz. Shown here with some of my "Sugar Maple" hand dyed thread.
I've been doing a lot of embroidery lately so thought it'd be fun to arrange my threads into a rainbow :)

Hand woven with natural dyes in Williamsburg. All natural except the urine they use to add so the thread would retain it's color over time.
Actually, I want to attempt to sew a dress for summer. Never been good at sewing though. In fact, 9 times out of 10 the thread knots up and I need someone to bail me out by putting the thread right again... so might be a "bit" of a challenge!
I'm starting small though... tonight I made a sunglass case. Nice and rectangular :)
My son is a fly tier. Much of his bedroom is devoted to this pastime. Among his supplies are several dozen spools of thread in all shades of the rainbow.
