Here is a stack of recent book binding projects!

I’m still deciding how or if I want to fill in these lines! This piece won’t be for sale, since I got the imagery from “the internet” but I will be donating it  for a Team Cat Rescue raffle or auction, here in Toronto, once it’s complete!

This was my first foray into embroidery! The design is entirely my own. I’m not sure what was going on with the thing beside the rosette, but it’s still pretty!

I’m a tinker. Though my first project with the loom (above) turned out well, I knew I could make improvements. Namely, replacing the tooth-ed beams with smooth ones. The new back beam has nails to hold neat rows of thread and enable me to string up the loom much more simply.
Codex
My first cosplay! I dressed up as “Codex” from the Geek & Sundry web series “The Guild”. And though I’ve made many dresses for myself in the past, this was the first corset (albeit a soft one with no boning).
Leather Purse
I made myself this purse in the winter of 2015. The most polished and mature purse I’ve made to-date. (Missing from the image: the straps, which were added a little later).
chickadee
A little patchwork chickadee I made for fun… all he needs is a final home!
lady bug
I made little patchwork samplers for my mom and aunt on mothers’ day in 2014. This is my mom’s (the image shows the WIP)

DON’T BLINK! (WIP: The finished Weeping Angel has wings and an angrier expression)

This resulted from a trip to the dollar store! The finished pieces are varnished with a water-based acrylic. I’ll be selling  variety packs of 48-60 pieces, so contact me if you’re interested!

String art! More to come!

This is a random assortment of WIPs. Times when inspiration hit, but not hard enough! They’re also times when I used scrap yarn to learn a new technique (like the green/white entrelac near the top right corner. I recently donated this batch to a lovely fellow artist.
