Yes, stitching is happening but it's not at a point where I can share quite yet. Serves me right for thinking that the current landscape needed embroidery. I'm obsessed, I tell you.
So, instead of a photo of what I'm working on, you no doubt know what I shall do instead....
- THIS is a little sumthin' you might like to try making.
- I know at least one of my readers is playing with pin looms, so perhaps THIS might be of interest.
- HERE is another technique that would be fun to try.
- THIS proves you can recycle pretty much anything!
This oh-so-true meme was snagged from Boud's blog (thank you!)....
The plastic toothpaste tube idea is something I'd never have thought of, though I do know a woman in the UK who flattens out metal tubes from tomato paste, etc., and makes delicate crowns with little silhouettes of birds and flowers! People are so delightfully creative.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a constant amazement to me just what people can come up with using ordinary objects most of us wouldn't consider.
DeleteThanks for the shoutout. Pinlooms are such fun to work on.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! Thought you'd enjoy the pin loom link.
DeleteSherry of createology: I love love love this list of Creative People. It really does fit. Thank you out and MA.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does fit, doesn't it!
DeleteI have never heard of pin looms. They look neat but I have too many other things on the go at the moment to tackle that...LOL I do however like the toothpaste tube craft, I thought that was a clever idea. I can finally comment now!
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm with you in not wanting to try another craft. It would mean likely having to get more stash and I'm really trying to use what I already have.
DeleteWhile I enjoy seeing your needle works, your mumblings never let me down. Thank-you.
ReplyDeleteThe Creative definition does describe me, so I guess I'm creative.
Glad you enjoy the mumblings because some days it's all I've got.
DeleteHmmm, pin looms look interesting, however I am busy learning to weave on my rather large beast of a ridged heddle loom. That is coming along pretty nicely for my first try at weaving.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I think pin looms might be somewhat limited for a lot of things. Looking forward to seeing what you create with your new loom!
DeleteToothpaste tubes. Who'd a thunk?
ReplyDeleteYep - exactly!
