Wimcee's whims and chickadees. Wimcee on the web. Sunday, July 29, 2012. My birthday comes along at this time of year and I still harbour that little-girl anticipation of celebrations, not to mention gift-getting, even though, if asked, I don't actually feel I need or want a lot of frivel.much prefer sourcing out the perfect present for other people in reality. In Brisbane, August (also) = Exhibition. The mighty Ekka, the annual horticultural show, the RNA, a rose by any name.more echoes of childhood!

Wimcee's whims and chickadees. Wimcee on the web. Tuesday, September 10, 2013. The Brisbane chapter of Brown Owls made funky tassel bunting to hang high above the recent ECO Bazaar in the Queensland Museum's whale mall. A tasseled silk cap that I made for a recent themed exhibition. Tassels, the close relative of the trending pom-pom, are a wonderful way to add embellishment to hats, beanies, bags, cushions, clothing, curtains and so on, and SO easy to make. Christmas crocheted baubles with tassels.

Wimcee's whims and chickadees. Wimcee on the web. Monday, May 27, 2013. Another etsy seller for your delectation! My fourth of five May promotions is a little gem! Meet Deb of DebiMDesigns. A fabulously creative soul who has taken the creative energy that previously drove her love of paper craft, and channeled it into the wonderful, colourful world of polymer clay. Deb also incorporates other materials in her designs many of which feature beads and findings, or, as in the case of her piece de resistance.

wimcee: April 2013
http://wimcee.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Wimcee's whims and chickadees. Wimcee on the web. Monday, April 15, 2013. At the end of this week I'm submitting my piece for a curated exhibition, The Tip Shop Competition. The bags and pouches that I've made for the last few years have been greater or lesser degrees of collage, as have been many of the aprons that I make, as well as the skirts and dresses I've done for children, so this is I guess a natural extension. I did a whole series of small collaged pouches a while back:. Gift Shop in the city).

Wimcee's whims and chickadees. Wimcee on the web. Saturday, September 1, 2012. Sew Happy at last! My mother was an excellent, creative seamstress, and I grew up familiar with sewing machines, specifically the heavy-duty Singer that Dad gave her as a wedding present in 1956. This machine still works beautifully, and at the age of 80 she still uses it to do small repair jobs and to alter clothing to fit. Very recently she had it lovingly serviced by Henderson's. My sons got to wear some interesting dressin...
