http://julaine.blogspot.com/2011/07/embroidered-beads-and-my-heart-valve.html
Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Tuesday, July 19, 2011. Embroidered Beads and My Heart Valve. It's hard to imagine that it's been 15 years since I was diagnosed. This did take a little time, but I wanted to share a tutorial on some of what I've been working on: embroidered pony beads. Yes, there is something you can do with those little plastic kids' beads. Latest update on a new cardiologist - I have an appointment in 2 weeks with someone who specializes in valve disorders. Keep ...

Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Sunday, March 03, 2013. On the Mannequin - Wild Fibers Wrap. There's a new date for the silent art auction that I'm participating in, so I'm now pacing myself in the completion of the quilt that will be donated. Here are some photos of the "wild fibers wrap" so far.I was going to stitch the squares together. Nah. Buttons? Some of the wild fibers - some dupioni silk and panne velvet, cut into 1/2 inch strips.

Julaine in Fiberspace: July 2012
http://julaine.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Monday, July 09, 2012. So in the process of cutting circles of wool felt for buttons.I became bored. Even knowing that I would be attaching these to some upcoming nuno-felted pieces with beads, other buttons, and some perle cotton didn't help.I was not inspired! Wait, what are these narrow multi-color pieces? Pin them until they're dry. Oh, yeah! It was pretty easy to get that look! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My Shop on Etsy. View my complete profile.

Julaine in Fiberspace: A Tale of Two Skirts
http://julaine.blogspot.com/2011/06/tale-of-two-skirts.html
Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Wednesday, June 22, 2011. A Tale of Two Skirts. I think I had worn each of the two skirts once or twice. Loved the fabrics, just not sewn into skirts, I guess. This one really intrigued me.maybe it was because it looked like it would be a challenge. After seeing that it took 7/8 of a yard, I thought, hmmm, let's dig through the closet.I must have something there! Even had an old metal zipper that was the perfect size. Add upcycling to my list. The d...

http://julaine.blogspot.com/2011/12/propping-up-fire.html
Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Tuesday, December 27, 2011. Propping up the Fire. Yes, I now can peel carrots while watching the 4th season of "Mad Men.". Santa brought Jeff and I a Kindle Fire for Christmas and even though I have a pool of the Kindle Cozies that I've made to store it in, I also wanted a case that when opened, would hold the Fire in place and prop it up at an angle for viewing while doing something else (idle hands, eh? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Musing on a ...

Not always well-behaved, even in the artistic life. Sunday, November 13, 2011. Mixed Media Shopping - In the Studio. The excitement builds as I shop in my own studio for supplies. Getting ready to start another collection of art pieces involves the gathering of stuff - you know.well, I might use this, so I'll put it somewhere close by so I won't forget it. One of the things that I get so charged up about is finding that stuff that you did forget about. So it's almost like shopping, right? So here's what ...
