Artistic Endeavors of a Restless Soul

January creative makes ...

I finished the jute piece.

I have not yet thought about how I want to complete the sides and, if I want to make in to a wall hanging.

Sewing a memory map : inspiration for this piece is from Pinterest. It has so many wonderful ideas.

I stitched a small potion of my childhood village. While sewing the road that leads to home, it brought back so many memories.

I have few more map ideas, now that I want to experiment with.

Thank you for stopping over,

Until next time,

August creative makes..

A still life collage;

made in Toronto cider !!

Stump-work portrait : inspiration Mrs. Sophia Petrilo, from popular 80's US TV series " The Golden Girls".

How is my Sophia ?

Bit of weaving..

Finally, a small piece of kantha embroidery also inspired by the picture of this lady who is making rice flour on a stone grinder. I kept the picture, which was printed on a packet of wheat flour I bought quite sometime ago. I wanted to do a painting of it, but I never got around to do it until recently. I did pencil colour drawing of it and, that gave me the idea to try this embroidery.
