Second Patch For Today. I Used A Little Bit Of This Paisley Quilting Fabric In The Middle, Otherwise

second patch for today. I used a little bit of this paisley quilting fabric in the middle, otherwise it's felt and embroidery thread..

if I was a sincereist, this is probably the heart I would be wearing on my sleeve. working small has been fun, but I should plan out something nice and complicated tomorrow.

Fall Patch. approx 3" diameter, craft felt and embroidery thread, front and back.

this is what I made today. it took me about 3 hours off and on. figured I'm putting up so much old stuff I should mix it up with something new.

I'm taking a small break from working on my giant embroidery project to play around a little with other needlework techniques, and also working small and quick is rewarding. it keeps the dopamine flowing to finish things.

Today I made a Christmas ornament. (and also did muh nails)

it is a snowflake made out of felt. I stuffed it with the little scrappy bits of felt that I had leftover so it's a bit of a little pillow. it looks good and is now hanging on my tree.

Yes, I copied the design off something I found on pinterest. because I am a hack. you'll note I didn't do as good of a job of it as Jody Bishel does, so I don't feel too bad about it.

Pisces, edition of 16

I finally carved this super cool clear linoleum sample that Nick gave me and printed on one sheet of BFK which I ripped into 16 bits. (which would be funnier if this was pixel art, but alas)

Damn I love the clear linoleum so much. it is beautymus.

image is drawn after these little soy sauce bottles I have. Done to do something silly. Start to finish a couple of hours out of today put to good use.
