I'm back

Hi Everyone,

I have been away for a while and have returned to connect, share and generally keep you up to date with my comings and goings. I'm shifting my oeuvre for this blog, to being more holistic. Hang on it will be a fun ride!

I've been inspired lately by the things around me. I love making things. Lately I've bee making things from other things. Let me explain. My father showed me a beautiful old ski sweater of my mother's that had been shrunken and moth eaten. He wanted to know if I wanted it. I took it of course, and thought for a while before I started playing with it. I pulled it apart (at the seams) and cut it up to make a little sweater jacket for a my little grandson. He is the one modeling the sweater jacket. (It's still a little big.) It was fun and engaging as I had to really think how it was all going to come together.



Next post I will share another project of "upcycling". Share with me what you have been doing.
