The First Textile Pieces

remember the cloth pieces I prepared

before my break?

I showed you the beginning here

Now I have them finished

The first ones

I sewed on the word 'Elements' on this piece

my second piece ever

I worked with different tecniques on this

learned something about the thickness of layers

some parts were really hard to stitch through

I like it though

and this one

with circles on it

that turned out like jellyfish and shells

the beginning of new little pieces

left piece finished with a Jellyfish

I´ve also been working on a new shop.

This is for my collages and textile art

This shop is not to replace my Etsy Shop

It´s an experiment

We´ll see if it will work out.

Wishing you all a beautiful weekend

A break too long and an Announcement

So

this break turned out to be

much longer than expected

december went with waiting

and a cancelled surgery.

a new shedule and little more waiting.

finally a surgery on January 5th

and then a few weeks of recovery.

things are better

I´m almost back to my good old self.

Just need the last check in a week.

I´m sure everything will be fine 

I´m almost ready to start to new year

***

and now to the announcement

A new Year have begun and that means

changings in the studio.

After designing and selling my handmade bears for 13 years
it´s time for me to close down my bearmaking business.

As some of you know, I also work with Collage and Textile Art, 

and my desire to develope and work with that

have grown this past year. 

And as I still work parttime in a dayjob,

I no longer have the requered 

time to keep up with the bear making.

bears through the years

I have enjoyed working with those little souls during those 13 years and have

so many happy memories from that.

 I will treasure those for always.

One little bear is left on my wesite

go here to have a look

and lots of mohair, mini bear fabric and suppliers

have been listed here

**

Will be back soon 

to share what´s going on in the studio

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend
