Guild Challenge

Image
This is my start for the February sinchie guild challenge.  Black is the color for this month.  I have black fabric wrapped around foam core and metallic black thread wrapped around that.  So far I have included a butterfly on each of my six-inch blocks.  I am trying to figure out how to make a butterfly with this spoon I have wrapped in beads and attach it to the block.  I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.ca/

Journal Page

The journal prompt this week is words as it has been for the whole month of January.  I arrived home today after having been in Hawaii.  Home felt like the right word to use for my page.  Our vacation was utterly fabulous.  Vacations are great and they always make me appreciate my home and lifestyle all the more.  Even though it is cold and snowing right now and I am finding it hard to feel warm enough I am happy to be home.  My page was created with some hand dyed and crumpled paper.  I added some strips of hand dyed scrap fabric and my word, home.

Beading Progress

Image
I am making progress on my January bead journal.  I cannot figure out how to make the camera capture the correct colours.  These are way off.  Oh well.  I am loving the way this coming.  I have my doubts that I will get it finished by the end of the month.  I am leaving for Hawaii in a couple of days and I am not sure if I will take it with me.  I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.ca/

The prompt for the month is words.  Is this vibrant enough?  I threw this page together quite quickly as I am not feeling all that great.  I used some sparkly tape to form the letters.  Love the sparkle!

Work in Progress Wednesday

I finished up my stitched butterfly.  I used my own hand dyed silk thread to stitch on to silk fabric.  This exists in a small silk book I created.  I am rethinking the book idea.  It is rather flimsy so I think I will cut out the pages and use the stitched pieces in something else.  Not exactly sure what at this moment but it will come to me.
