Embroidery on Paper

Halfway there - Letters L & M

1/26/2014

13 done, 13 to go. And I'm one week ahead of schedule.

L is all about layers - I tore and overlapped about 7 colours of tissue paper, then added threadwork and beads. This is my favourite so far.

M is all about the paper, not the letter. Momigami is a technique of oiling, then crumpling and kneading paper which makes it stronger and gives it a different look. I could definitely tell it was stronger once I started to embroider the letter.

Now on to N and O.

Hi Wendy. Yes it's been a lot of fun, and even better I've learned much from doing this. I'm so glad you posted a list of challenges and such that are out there. I was planning to participate in the New to Me one - I'll have a closer look at the others you have listed. Thanks for sharing!

Love your alpha project. Such a fun and creative idea. Can't wait to see it all finished and put together for the show.

Thanks Myriam! It's been a fun project, I've learned lots, but will be sad when it's finished. But I've got some ideas for more art books.
I had a peek at your site - wonderfully creative. And you've linked to free courses. I just can't help myself, I think I'm addicted to taking courses.

About Me

It's taken years to discover the medium I enjoy the most. And how what I have learned before somehow fits into what I am doing now. Even when I travel my needles and threads are with me so I can continue to create while away.

It's been wonderful being able to share my work with others and to be a part of an artistic network that continues to grow and develop.

If you have ideas you would like to suggest, please let me know. And check back regularly to my web site for updates.
