unsure...

... found these photos. I have this piece hanging around. Could probably call it WIP , yes think I will as I really don't think it's finished. I'm at a bit of a dead end with it. Really should have it pinned up on the wall to inspire me but haven't got that far...
I quite like parts of it but as there is no artwork to go with it (naughty, naughty!) I'm not sure which direction to take with it.
...mmmm, think that last one looked like it had a heart in it, can't imagine where that could have come from!!!
Anyway here it is in its unfinished state, or maybe I should just call it finished!!
...mmm...maybe, not!
Think I'll pin it up!!
byee!

Amazing!...

...it's not every day that you open a can of tropical fruit salad and find these...
...staring up at you!! The moment couldn't pass without a quick dash for the camera. This fruit was definitely for sharing!!
...there's another one!!
I just couldn't eat them!! Well not today anyway, maybe tomorrow!! :o(
Byee! :o)

Hi :o) !

I really should be doing some work but thought I'd take a little time out to post a few more photos. This is my next batch of little heart brooches destined for Funky Scottish. We've gone on to winter hours for those that may be in the Pittenweem area, Thurs, Frid, Sat 11am to 4pm. Anyway, I'm still working up to putting something in my etsy shop as well, maybe soon and maybe these!!They are all worked in the same way, make a large piece of fabric by bonding and machine couching fancy yarns in place and cutting them out. That's the fun bit trying to fit as many as possible out of the piece!
Then they need a machine satin stitch edge and a brooch back to finish them off.
I really enjoy making them, they're great fun! :o)


The bigger the heap the better! I've done a batch in a different colour way but as they are still WIP I've not taken any photos of them. I'll get to them soon, I hope!!

Then in amongst all this busy, busy I take time out which I really shouldn't and end up doing a crazy play!! The photo above and below show the result.

Mmmm...Why?... Well, just because...Don't you have "just because" moments?!!
Anyway, that's all for now, see you on flickr!!
Byee :o)
