Shibori Knots: January 2009
http://iloveshibori.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. The particular backyard that we share with our neighbors has, for some inexplicable (or maybe, explicable) reason, become a thoroughfare for white tail deer. The picture below is from Google images to show you what we are up against:. Think about it. The answer will come. The white tail deer are carousing in my neighborhood. They would be stopping every 5 minutes to see deer or pheasant. Which I saw yesterday in abundance in n...

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. I have a goldfish plant. Because I can not do anything really normally, my goldfish on this plant do not really look like goldfish. They look like sharks. Or maybe remoras more than sharks. They certainly are not evocative of little round fishes with puckered up lips ready to kiss each other. These look like they are on the prowl for fresh meat. Links to this post. Hanami Iowa Style 09.

Shibori Knots: April 2009

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. Monster from the bathroom sink. Imagine my surprise this noon when, while brushing my pearly whites (or pearly beiges), I looked down and saw something growing out of the overflow drains in the sink! Here is a photo, sink hairs and all. This opened up all sorts of questions in my mind. What the? When I went to pull it out - I kept pulling and pulling. This thing is a mile long! How in the world did it get there? Links to this post.

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. I have actually done some pieces with some of the fabric I brought back from Japan. Bigger pieces than chiri-men boards, anyway. I thought I had better post them for posterity before I give them away. That's why I never have anything to show for all the work I do in my studio: it goes out the door before I take photographs! I will note that now I see these in picture form, I don't care for some of them. I will explain. Amateurish ...

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. Okay, put away the Middle School jokes. There is such a bird as a Hairy Woodpecker, and it lives right here in River City. My neighbors have the best bird attracting stuff! They put up this new feeder and I don't know what it has in it, but the Hairy Woodpecker was there this morning ON THE BOTTOM of it. Here are the grainy, badly taken photos:. And the pi è. Ce de resistance, the CLOSE UP. It's also bad and grainy. Sorry.

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. Here is another update on Motoko-chan. We talked on the phone not long after her packages arrived. Motoko-chan was born in 1930 (so she is 78, not 60-something as I originally thought). She lived in Hiroshima when the bomb dropped. All she had to say about that was "it was terrible". I'll bet. Then they shipped her off to the countryside in the Kansai province. Should I be so spry. What humbles me is that she chose. I'm scared of ...

Knotty thoughts on anything from aardvarks to zealots, including textiles. I was busy in October making my son's dreams come true. The Green Lantern and Star Sapphire. Considering that there are. Green Lantern costume patterns and no one has ever heard of Star Sapphire except my son, I had to wing a lot of it. I have never sewn pleather. And I don't do stretch fabrics. Ever. The only things I didn't make are his gloves and his mask and the rings. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
