Some time ago, I was busy working my hands getting some accessories made for Caid's Pentathlon A&S competition. I was so busy I didn't blog much about them. Sadly, I ended up very sick a few days before the event, and cancelled my plans to go as I remained sick through that weekend. Needless to say I was very frustrated as I'd put a lot of time and ( Read more... )

Sorry I haven't posted in a long while. I've been madly trying to get projects done or dealt with for this weekend's Caid A&S Pentathlon competition. My hands have been busy (and getting tired) with hand sewing stockings, and making fingerloop braids, and I also need to do up documentation as well still. I'm entering 3 items only this time, my ( Read more... )

Now that the excitement of Caid's Festival of the Rose is past (as noted in my personal blog - where I get not one, but two honors!), I've improved my documentation a little, added in another page to compare the original to my creation, and have made a web page for folks to download what I've got so far ( Read more... )

A short time ago, I finally finished the long Heraldic Embroidery project. I then took it outside to the setting sun and took photos of it.

I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I've been off my computer for the past several days, so I can focus as much time towards completing this project as I can. It has to be finished in a couple of weeks for the competition, and it has to have documentation, too. If possible, I'd like for it to be in its final form as a casket/box, which ( Read more... )

From the 14th to the 23rd, I was a good artistic girl and spent some time every day working mostly on my heraldic embroidery project, except for one day which was spent with my son on his field trip. But then like every time I've tried ArtEvDaMo, I ended up with a cold, and too sick to actually work on anything. I was too tired and too sore from ( Read more... )

Last night was our monthly baronial meeting. It was a good meeting, as most are. Quick, efficient, and had lots of folks including a few that are new or rarely attend these meetings ( Read more... )

It is nice to say that I have done some bit of artwork every day except for one day. That one day was Friday, Veteran's Day, where instead of doing some form of artwork, I spent the afternoon with the kids at nearby Rotary Playland & Storybookland. It was good being around their fun energy. I then got sick after dinner and went to bed ( Read more... )

Well, I have been doing something artistic the past several days. ( Read more... )

I've not been doing a whole lot, but the past few days I actually spent a few hours to actually finish a section of my heraldic embroidery project. The section is known as Quarter 4, and has the pomegranate and the columbine as the two biggest motifs. This is actually the second section I've added gold to, but the first of the two I am finished ( Read more... )
