New Work

Is anyone finding, as I am, that November is slipping by very quickly? Where do the days go? I'm doing some new work, but here are a few more photos of the pieces I completed recently for an artisan show.

My photos are not great - sorry! This picture is mounted on white linen and 

is made with fabric, hand embroidery, beading, trims and machine stitching.

This little tree sold quickly. I used similar materials on it, 

with the addition of painted green lace in the foreground.

This piece has a lot of machine stitching and hand painted fabric for the sky.

It was framed with a black frame and also sold.

I love purple and this is my favorite piece from this group.

Terrible photo! I must make a little photo booth - I've seen some on Pinterset!

I'm working out a simpler method of mounting pictures and I'll share it with

you soon. Meanwhile, here's a photo of me at that last show. You can see here that 

the linen borders were very crisp, and outlined with black chenille yarn.

Hope you're enjoying your weekend and not too stressed out preparing for

Thanksgiving next week. We are keeping ours simple this year!

A friend of mine passed away this year - very suddenly - 

and I always loved the way he ended his Facebook posts. In memory of 

Joe Donovan, a very sweet guy, I'm going to end my blog posts the same way.

Have a good week.

Smiles...
