Wow :love::love::love:
 
Wow everyone's creations are amazing :D. I have no talent for drawing or painting (or modelling) though I've done some cross stitch in the past - years ago though, no idea where they are now! I love the toiletry bag someone made for their gran (sorry I can't be bothered to look back to see who it was :oops:). I've never tried sewing. The painted baubles are amazing and the portrait of Dreamer is beautiful.
 
Here's a couple of bits I've done over the weekend. :)

LOVE IT....the monochrome then her eyes in colour! It's almost as if she's peering through a painting on a wall horror movie style.... fab!

Thank you :)

Here are some experimental clay pieces with gold lacquer that I hope to use for necklaces.

^ Just liked those on facebook. :D
Great idea for a thread!

I like to make miniatures and also to play with polymer clay in 'fun' capacities.
I like to bake too.

Hm,
Here's a puppy. I also made the rug he's sitting on.

When I was younger I used to enjoy drawing, but I was always pretty hit and miss. :lol: Here's one from when I was 15.

These are great :D I love the progress pics and thanks for the Like :)
 
Yeah....I thought they're sssooo cute I just had to have a go. I love the one on the left. The one on the right's how it is on the photo and I thought I can't really see it's eyes!!!:( perhaps it's got myxie? will have a word with the photographer.
Have now tweaked the middle one's chin so it's not so harsh.....when I come back to it I can always see a bit more that needs a tweak....think's I'll let it be.....

Aww I hope it didn't have myxi.

I really like your style, you'd make a good illustrator.
 
I have some little clay works I finished last night. Again they will eventually become pendants but for now they look like this:

I don't get a lot of craft work done now, so thought I would show a photo of a blanket I've just finished knitting for my grand-daughter (gosh that makes me sound old :lol:).
