He has to be a farmer because who else would have all the vegetable tattoos?!
And his other side-
He has an antique one-hole button on his belt.
Fancy boots-
And his portrait in front of my favorite wall which won’t be around much longer because that house is being renovated.
I won’t be listing anything new into my etsy shop until October 12, when I get back from Paradise City Art Festival. If you think you’d like to come, you can get a ticket discount here.
She is the last lady for now, as I am stocking up for my show.
Here are all the closer-ups-
And the back view-
Fall is coming but I am still in a summer flower mood.
Although if I call these dahlias, then they are very seasonal! I have seen loads of Monarch butterflies lately and that makes me very happy.
Another Lady, this one in a more muted colorway. Maybe? I mean that turquoise blue POPS!
I really like how the zig-zaggy sweater bits turned into butterfly wings.
Big Flowers! It is dahlia season in my garden and they are beautiful this year! Somehow though, the ones that have thrived are all dark purple but I’m not complaining.
Cashmere knit, wool knit, wool felt, boiled wool, wool boucle- so many different fabrics and textures.
I meant to post her yesterday but I got my flu shot on Friday afternoon and that pretty much knocked me out for 24 hours. Thank goodness I am back to myself again today!
Lots of cashmere applique on this lady. Almost all of the embellishments are bits cut from cashmere sweaters. The boucle fabric that her dress is made of was fabric from my Mom’s stash. I will be working through her fabrics for the rest of my life!
Here are a lot of detail shots of the butterflies-
And here she is, sitting with her friend who I will post tomorrow.
The lady with all the cats! She has dark purple hair but it is hard to see in the photos.
All the cats-
Little birds in a bush on this baby.
I am in nose-to-the-grindstone mode, getting ready for this first in-person show in a very long time. Hopefully that means lots of things getting posted but not much going into the etsy shop.
This one was a special request and has green eyes.
I think this baby has a lovely pensive face.
More cashmere applique.
And here are both of these sweet babies!
Cashmere butterflies and flowers- lots to love!
