Stitching is about the only thing keeping me somewhat calm these days. Here's the latest, a riff on a piece I did a couple years ago in blue. It's hand stitched on wool felt, satin and recycled hand dyed canvas with a willow creek jasper.

Super fun flower using one of my older patterns, vintage fabric and vintage thread colors I have way too much of, centered on an agate I cut awhile back.

Year of the snake.
I have used the ouroboros often in my art over the years. The ancient symbol of destruction and rebirth seems very current these days. The snake eating its own tail also symbolizes interconnectedness. Community, connection is the path.

There are lots of people doing embroidery that think keeping the back neat and tidy is very important. I am not one of them.

Hi, just started here. I'm a textile and lapidary artist. I embroider, paint, dye and cut rocks. Here's my latest "Ruby Cardinal". Hand embroidered wool felt and a ruby I cut and polished.
