Yellow and White Fish Pillows

Posted on by

Two light colored fish. I remember exactly where I got the body fabrics- The top fish is an awesome coat fabric. I went to a fiber swap and someone had brought a vintage (70’s?) coat. I took that home! The white textured weave fabric I picked up in Northampton, MA after I did a show there. I went to a shop that sold supplies for rug-hooking. It had just changed ownership. The new owner put out a pile of free wool fabrics. Why yes, I did grab a bagful. That fabric was probably never going to work for rug hooking but it is good for me!

Gone fishing

The last month has been busy, involving some travel and other fun and/or more boring real life things. Now I have something to show because, yes, I have been getting a little work done! It’s fish-y time. I cut out and sewed up a load of fish- that’s not even all of them.

Here is who got finished first-

Blue tweedy fish-

and blue sweater fish-

And there is more to come!

Owls in the House

I started to put some owls together but was then struck down by some kind of bug. I am slowly getting better- better enough today to take some photos.

These 2 owls are of the Rusty Orange Owl family :-)
