I've been way behind on my fiber art group 12" square challenge. Each month we've been given a theme and asked to create a small piece. This last week I've been working hard to catch up.
 |
| 5 months done! Including July! All trimmed to 12.5" x 12.5" |
 |
| Theme: I heard it through the grapevine. Technique: layered yarn and ribbon on a pieced background, covered with tulle, heavily quilted. |
 |
| Theme: The answer is chocolate. Technique: foiling and eating chocolate kisses. |
 |
| Theme: Flowers on the wall. Technique: manipulated photos of flowers and a stone wall printed on organza and them cut to smithereens. |
 |
| Theme: Walking on sunshine. Technique: Hard to see, but the hot stripey stripset is pleated. |
 |
| Theme: In the lawn of life, be the flamingo. Technique: pieces of hand dyed cocoons, attached by quilting, and then frayed |
I finally finished Big Figure #8. It's been on the wall for over a month:
 |
| Big Figure #8, 34" x 48" |

I think there is a bit of ebb and flow in this creating that we do. Sometimes much is accomplished and sometimes not. I think the quiet times and the vacations are time to let the ideas simmer and take hold! Certainly the case with you!
