Red and Blue on the way

After enjoying the blogs of several other tackmakers, I finally caved in and decided to begin my own. Since I update my site only when I finish a piece (which can be few and far between, I admit) I thought this might give others an insight to my creative process. I warn you now: creative minds are seldom tidy, and I am certainly no exception to that rule!

I have recently re-opened my books after a 1 year hiatus. It did not take long for slots to begin filling up, to my delight. I love working on commissions! Going along with my good friend Jennifer Buxton's desire to never post without a picture of some sort, I took a moment to snap a few shots of the beginning drapes of the new orders.

This red rug will end up as a native arab costume similar to my Bint Aisha one that placed at NAN last year:



This blue rug is destined for some added sparkle :)


I am off to match embroidery thread at my local JoAnn's!
