A few new Hand dyed raw silk & Vintage Kimono Cowls ready for the Maker Faire/Swap-o-rama-rama

Making Business Cards

my beautiful arsenal

Kyle sewing business card-bookmarks….maybe my scrap pile will get a little smaller now.

A kick of making mini-sculptures (earrings) has produced some interesting results. These are Maple wood beads, handmade from the Japanese joints cut in making our kitchen table, and amber nuggets from Lithuania.

A most awesome old sewing machine

Kyle hanging up his tussah silk shawl just after dipping it in the Indigo.

Merino wool that was first dyed with onion skins, and tussah silk that was first dyed with Cochineal, being dipped into the Indigo dye bath.
