Belated Art Project Post

Last week I opened a Zazzle shop and added a couple of my digital images for mini buttons.

Not too exciting yet. It's a work in progress.

More ruckus to come when there's more there there.

My Fuzzy Valentine

After a day weeding vegetable beds and pruning bamboo, I needed an easy craft to satisfy the weekend art project. (What is craft but applied art, anyway?) Happy Valentine's Day to all!

Instructions for this project are here:

Kobukusa for Kristin

I sewed up a quick kobukusa for Kristin's birthday (we use brocade kobukusa in the Japanese tea ceremony). She was tickled by the dragon motif.

Fabric cut and pinned. (My kobukusa is on the right.)

Finished kobukusa.
