Almost end of the year ...

 

Recently, I did some natural dyeing. I used pomegranate skins, blueberry, avocado skins and spinach and celery.

Fabric pieces are all cotton, and has a small woven design on it. I am not sure yet, what I want to make out them. I am pleased with the colours.

Happy Holidays !!!

Best wishes for 2022!

Spring/Summer Handkerchief quilt

I recently finished this handkerchief quilt. It has both old and new hankies. I did sew everything by hand including piecing them together. It does look alright isn't it?

After a very long time....

I have not posted any of creative pieces for a quite long time. My camera battery stopped working and I was not able to fix the problem.  I kept postponing getting it fixed(specially with all Covid restrictions) and finally managed to get it work( i think) 

I have been keeping busy with bit of creative work.

Gustav Klimt inspired

Henry Matisse's blue willow was the reference for this collage/applique.  

Still life collage/applique

Another collage/applique "red scarf"

Couple of Modigliani art in running stitch

I do love, how the both ladies turned out. My eyes needed a rest after so many tiny stitches. And, I had got new glasses :)

I hope you are well and safe,

I was able to finish my latest Modigliani inspired portrait. Other than that, I have not done much creative work. 

Hoping that 2021 brings much needed relief from covid-19.

Wishing everyone a safe and a healthy new year!!

September went by fast...

 Baby blanket

I finished the baby blanket and, sent it off to the baby. Baby's mom I liked it a lot, I hope baby would like it too. 

Now, that the days are getting shorter, I cannot do much sewing except for weekend mornings.
