Amazing Grace

This piece is called french knot explosion.  I love french knots some people see a rose but I didn't see it when it was made.  It is at Valley Artisans Market if you like it and want to purchase it.

Just a sheep

Hi all!  I’ve changed my listings on Etsy just a bit.  Each one of a kind ornament has its own listing.  I’ve updated the pictures to make them clearer and more representative of what they actually look like.  I originally thought maybe putting all the sheep on one listing would make them easier to find but each sheep has a personality of its own and a look of its own. If the main sheep or peace sign or joy pillow doesn’t baahken to you then you probably weren’t going to look at the rest of them.  So I gave each one its own listing.  There are still a couple more grouped together but I will separate them too.
For years I have sold my ornaments at craft fairs and Valley Artisans Market and people always comment about how much they love my ornaments and how each one is different. I am not a mass producer I produce just one.  One at a time, hand drawn and hand embroidered.  No patterns, no copies, no embroidery machine.  Just me and my hands and my love of the simple stitch, and color and…

Focus

This is one of the pieces I am working on at the moment.  It is called Gutted.  
Focus is the theme of this blog post.  With the holidays, divorce and a move on the horizon I am finding it so hard to focus on hand embroidery at the moment.  The ironic part of this is that the more I hand embroider the more I focus.  The more I go out and about the more unfocused I become so the idea of looking for an apartment has been a daunting experience.  It's not world peace and compared to the world at the moment it's very immaterial whether I am focused or unfocused or hand embroidering or not but since my blog has suffered lately I thought I would offer an explanation.
Please check back in the coming days and see more pictures of Gutted and hopefully in a few days or weeks when I am ensconced in my new apartment I will have much more to share about art, hand embroidery and life.  Please have a great holiday season.  Focus on your loved ones and the stuff that you love.  See you soon.…

Little Suzy Creamcheese

I wasn't going to write anything today because I really didn't have too much to talk about today artistically. Then I read Chapter 64 in Eat, Pray, Love(the fabulous book brought on by my visit to Art of the Spirit where I saw a lecture by the author).

The author calls herself a Little Suzy Creamcheese which means she is social, bubbly and smiling. People who know me in real life would probably call me a Little Suzy Creamcheese. If a garden gnome came to life I would be standing there talking to it after everyone else left. I like to say I'd talk to a wall if it would talk back to me but a talking garden gnome sounds more interesting don't you think? I also thought of Mr. Ed the talking horse but everybody would want to talk to a talking horse wouldn't they?

The real point of this chapter is to accept yourself the way you are, like the author sometimes I wish there was an off button to stop me from saying that one extra sentence or having my words come out in…
