Silk Hankies



I have bought a number of silk hankies/caps over the years.  I love silk but must admit I didn't really know what to do with them except needle felting.  The other day I happened across a youtube video about drafting a hanky.  So I gave it a try.  It was surprisingly easy.  The bottom picture is my result.  I am excited to experiment with that a bit more.  While I had out my silk I decided to color a silk cap with my Inktense blocks.  Top picture shows that it works rather well.

    Yarnharlot knits right from them, she did a blog post about that a while back. Seems they make very warm mittens...

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
