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.)

Day 9

I planned a different post but I have to go out of order for technical reasons....but that is actually proper as my creativity skips around the same way. I felt like embroidering so sitting by the lake on my lunch hour I started a new ornament instead of working on the carved birds....

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!

AEDM day 6

I hate computers, we just took ours in to be fixed, and now it's worse than before and we even just bought a better antivirus program as well.... argh!
but it's working long enough to post my little bit of creativity lately....

I sketched these mandalas in red in my novel sketchbook, (just a sketchbook I use for the maps and family trees and other visual info about the novel i want to keep all in one place) because one of the characters in my novel, Bennett, does redwork embroidery so i was doodling her designs. Of course I haven't even added that fact to the novel either.... and,

when i was doodling, the permanent marker exploded. I will look like my hand is bleeding for days....
