Inchies

I made my 1st and last Inchies. Tiny little works of questionable "art" only 1 inch square. I hated making them after I found out how hard it was to keep them perfectly square and 1 inch, hence these being my 1st and last.

Layers of paper, paper lace, threads and  tulle stitched together and embellished with  micro beads. I did add a Swarovski Crystal to each before sending them out to their new home.



Perhaps it is the color, or the ragged edges of the tulle or some other unperceived flaw but they just do not Feel good to me. I don't usually send out something I don't like but I was in a time crunch. I hope the person receiving these loves them more than I do.

New beginnings

It has been a while since I posted anything here. I have been doing swaps and other creative things but nothing so creative as my son and daughter-in-law. They gave me a Granddaughter on Feb 1st. She is beautiful, but since my son does not want her plastered all over the internet I decided to share just this one edited photo of her.

Here is Claire peeping in on the world.

I hope to be able to share other accomplishments as she masters them but until then just be sure that there is a beautiful young lady out there taking her first look at this old world. I hope to be around to see all her firsts.
