Two in teal

New two pouches in teal, textured vinyl. Big pouch dimensions are 10.5"w x 6.75"h. Tassel is 0.75"w x 4.5"h. Small coin, cash and credit card pouch with a button stud. Small pouch dimensions are 3.75"w x 4.5"h. The small pouch fits in the big pouch for a perfect night out, or keep it in your day bag. I use it to keep change for parking meters.

It's not leather

I know, I know that we all love leather. I wanted to explore different materials for this clean, round corners design. The hot pink clutch is made out of felt, and the ochre one is vinyl. I'm looking to get some thicker felt for this project. Tassels are handmade by me also. ; Clutch dimensions are 10.5"w x 6.75"h. Tassels are 0.75"w x 4.5"h. Working on a prototype for both.

Gray scale

I can play with those for hours. Same leaves as here, scanned them and made them gray-scale, endless patterns.

Nature love

The gardeners in my neighborhood are doing a job well done, but today I managed to get some treasures.

Do you remember my Excess hat? It was mentioned here. I'm so proud. Thank you Heli for letting me use your beautiful photo.

Paper cut

This is one of the ways I like to silk print. First I work on a design (1), then I print it on my laser printer. I cut out all the parts I want to print (2) and tape it to a silk screen on the side that touches the fabric, not where the ink goes. I mix some inks and print my design (3). It's an inexpensive way to print simple designs.

Lemon and poppy seeds

Dry eucalyptus leaves that were collected while walking, and amazing lemon poppy seed muffins. Instead of a regular muffin pan I used a mini one, less calories for each.
