Finished the colourful blocks. Now to add the white triangles around each one. It's been almost a year since my mom died, and finishing a project she started helps me appreciate everything she passed on to me, especially my love of creating.
PrairiePeasant:
Here's what came out of the dye pot for me. The bottom green is a thrifted apron I've been waiting to dye. The top "solids" are very thin cottons that will work well for my fabric pottery. The others are small experimental scraps.

Recently turned this old book into a journal for a custom order.

After much tweaking, this is the final arrangement of my display window. Each artist had one or more windows to fill. In the days to come, I'll show you some works from the other artists. The opening for "Poetic License" is tomorrow from 2-4 at the Millen

You're probably wondering where the books are, so here's a peak. This is what I have been working on with the vintage linens for awhile. #poeticlicense #bookarts #bookbinding #handmadebooks #exhibition #localartists #winnipeg #handbound #bookartists #arti
