Been busy...

I have been away from posting and doing anything really fun "art wise", I was working on that project for a client (I think its done, just waiting to hear the okay from my client)... And then I got hit with a summer cold, I hate colds at best of days, but when its hot and humid... It really sucks to fight a cold. But much better now, and feeling a bit better too with having a project done. So I finally got to do some fun art, art just for me and its so relaxing.

Ink and water colour painting on "Strathmore" Bristol smooth paper, I just wanted to see how it would take the ink and water colours. Its different, not sure if I would use water colours on it again.

And then I did a bit of sewing, love working with different materials together {paper, string, lace, buttons and fabrics}... The big nest, is something I did for my silk cocoons to be stored in. The smaller nest is for a friend of mine, I was thinking about one of my favourite birds {Magpie} that I really miss here. In Sweden we had tons of them, but in our yard we had the funniest Magpie couple and they took stuff from us {and all shinny and blue things}. I love them and miss them terribly. And I made another pin again.

And I got time to do a wash, my new fabric that I got from Sweden... All 10 meters of it, now hanging outside drying and waiting for me to finally sew us some new curtains for our kitchen. The new banister on our deck came in handy : )

Now, on to my next project!!
