My new wonky word of the year ornaments

Not really meant as Christmas ornaments, these are more to hang where you can see them all year, over a desk, by the sink where you do dishes, next to your work space....

They have a bit of fabric machine sewn, and a bit of felt hand sewn, and a bit of watercolor paper tied on. Too much fun to make only three, more to come I think.

(And the felt is made with 100% post consumer recycled plastic bottles, and they are stuffed with recycled plastic grocery bags so you can hear them krinkle a bit.)

This week....

My latest piece....FLY! A mini art quilt ornament.... 





More mini art quilts

IHere's a few more in progress and the final product. It is sort of addictive to paint these little pieces, and then to add little bits of threads. They are now in my etsy shop.

Textile pieces

My new mixed media quilted ornaments.
I need a better name for these things, but I can't seem to come up with anything.
But I am having fun making them! After i made the fabric mini books and lucky penny dolls that i posted last week, i wanted to do more sewing projects so these came about. They are little art quilts i guess. I messily machine quilted a few scraps then used those to paint and embroider onto. More in the works for brooches and pendants and more ornaments.....


They should be in my etsy shop soon, i hope. I have a new mac now so i should be able to get photos fixed and posted easier.....









Happy PPF!
