Not much update on stitching but...

Hi folks

So it's finally Autumn here in New Jersey. Chilly weather, freezing cold wind and falling leaves...The only season after Spring that I always look forward to. Some of you might not know that winter in where I live lasts nearly 5 months, we only have about 1 month each for Spring and Autumn which is incredibly short. So I really want to enjoy while it lasts, a cup of tea, cookies and a good book/stitching session. While my current job is rather busy, 16 working hours daily and almost no weekend, I still try to find time somewhere to put a few stitch and explore new crafty hobbies LOL (oh and did I mention that I finally have a website? It's www.fiberliciousyummyfibers.com in case you want to take a look!)

I recently hooked up with Sculpting and working with Beeswax and Clay. I'm still a beginner and learning baby step but I'm so proud that I did give a try. That is to say, hey people, don't assume that you cannot do A or B, just do it!

So here is my first few attempts at Clay and Mix medias on a sewing case. I learnt a lot of blending gradation colors and textures.



I also attempted to sculpture beeswax, which will be eventually used to condition naughty threads


and a few other blingy needle cases that I made when I had spare time











I also had several exciting chart hauls last month and most likely I will have another post about it!

Hope you guys have a wonder stitching time!

xoxo

  3. Everything looks lovely! I especially like the owl. I'll be buying something once I get a job but until then money is really tight. Take care :)
