I have developing a really cool series of projects over the last couple of weeks.
I became enthralled with the progressive pride flag, or as I like to call it the Inclusive Pride Flag. It includes the trans and people of color groups into the overall rainbow.
The Inclusive Rainbow flag uses 11 different colors, so that means in order to recreate it with acrylic painted canvases- 11 different painted canvases!
I am thrilled to announce that the 14th Annual Indie South Holiday Hooray is on in Athens, GA!
This will be an outdoor event with strict face mask and social distancing requirements.
There will be over 75 vendors, including Geek in Stitches. I will be there with my first 10x10 canopy!
There are definitely a lot adaptability going on for everyone these days.
The craft show circuit has been hit hard.
All of the local venues have canceled their craft show events. I was really looking forward to making solid advances in 2020.
We are all hopeful that they can be rescheduled at sometime in the future.
Like most people, I have been performing my IT job at home. Things are finally somewhat moving into a new rhythm.
I will finally begin moving more of my handcrafted products to my Square Shop.
This is a sneak peak!
I have been working on a number of designs that are created to look like mosaic tiles. These are all created with fabric, quilted and will be framed.
I have started with sea turtles and will be expanding to include other designs. These should start to be available by mid to late March 2020.
The University I work at shuts down for about a week each Christmas. I knew I wanted to try something big and complex over the break and eventually settled on a large Doctor Who Tardis.
I have been developing a new of new items that I'm excited to bring to my show booths. The first 4 are ready to make their appearance at the Indie South Handmade Lovers Valentine craft show.
The first item is a large variety of key chain fobs, featuring a great many fabric combinations. These are just a few...
Patterned and textured fabric styles...
Floral styles...
I've started a new series of items: Decorative Stitched Min Landscapes. I had taken an AQC iQuilt on-line class about a year ago and really enjoyed it.
This is the first tree that I made. The color really pops!
More Sea Turtles are coming!
The idea to do sea turtles first came to me while I was preparing to design something for my quilt guild, The Cotton Patch Quilters. I knew that I wanted to go acrylic, but it took a few weeks to finale the idea on a Caribbean waters theme.
We went to DragonCon over Labor Day Weekend. There was major overload! It was estimated that 85,000 people attended the Science Fiction and Fantasy convention in downtown Atlanta.
