working on more foxes
I am working like crazy, getting ready for Crafty Bastards next weekend in Washington, DC. As a result, I’ve gotten behind on posting the finished pieces. Here is a sweet girl fox- Liberty of London lawn dress and soft baby wale corduroy jacket. I love the little brass buttons on her jacket.
I think that you can still get discounted tickets to the market next weekend if you click through on that link at the top of the post.
and 2 more fish
These are the last for now.
September fish
Step by step. These photos are from my phone- sorry about the bad focus on some.
17 fish- all the pieces cut out and piled.
Step 2- 10 are sewed up and ready to be turned. 7 are bagged and put into the fish bin for later.
Step 3- turned right-side out.
Step 4- stuffed and finished!
And there will be more fish tomorrow!
#2 lady
Here she is!
tattooed lady
The first of the ladies is done and is with me in Chicago. Yes, I got here yesterday!
This toile is the last of a piece I bought in Paris, 3 years ago.
A vintage button for her belt buckle.
fox in green corduroy
Fall must be in the air- he has a corduroy jacket and a cashmere scarf!
He is looking a little wrinkly in the back. Hmm. It must be his favorite, wear all the time jacket.

Her sweater is Watermelon colored- perfect for summer!
a class in San Francisco
update- wow, wow, and WOW! the class is now full! If you’d like to be on the waiting list, send me an email at mimik@pobox.com.
I am going to teach a Tiny World class when I am out in San Francisco for the Renegade Craft Market. Thanks to everyone who responded to my enquiry.
The class will be on Friday, July 26, 10 am to 4 pm. All materials will be included except your teacup. The cost is $85. The class will be held at Sonya Philip‘s studio in San Francisco and is limited to 8 people. I have loved teaching this class and seeing what people create. I’ve also seen some wonderful groups of friends or mother/daughter pairs take the class together. This class is accessible to anyone who can thread a needle and likes details!
If you are interested in taking the class, I have listed it in my Etsy shop, here. Or, if you’d rather, send me an email (mimik@pobox.com) and I will send you a Paypal invoice.
I now have a class in San Francisco and one in New Hampshire. I am also working on scheduling 2 more classes for the fall in New England. This is turning into my year of teaching!
teaching in San Francisco?
I will be in San Francisco again this summer for the Renegade Craft Market on July 27 and 28. I am thinking about teaching a Tiny World class while I’m there. It would be either before (Thurs 7/25 or Fri 7/26) or after the show (Tues 7/30). Is anyone interested?
Details- it is a 6 hour workshop, 8 people max, cost will be approx. $75. I am trying to gauge interest before I buy my plane tickets.
And, don’t forget I will be at the Art Retreat just a few weeks later. I’m filling up my teaching schedule!
