Finally remembering to take photos before mailing off my work! This pouch has complimentary colors on each side.

I forgot to take any pictures, but my first craft fair was a success! I had 12 items, and sold 8 of them. Gave one to the organizer and traded another with a different vendor. Such a great experience.

In honor of #garweek, sharing this piece of writing that was published in the #hungermountainreview last year.

Ahhhhh my first craft market! Feeling simultaneously under-and over-prepared. Someone dissuade me from going out and spending money on gift bags?

Older piece; mix of traditional cross stitch, blackwork pattern, and some abstraction. #craftiverse #embroidery #art #textiles

This (very small) piece got away from me a little bit. The satin stitch checkered heart was hard on this lovely but very thin vintage fabric. But hey, gotta start somewhere.

More found fabric embellishment, plus a more traditional Scandinavian-inspired cross stitch. I'm going to be attending my first craft fair later in the month, anybody have any tips? #embroidery #crafts

Newer piece; the hand-me-down yarn and thrift store fabric pushed me into some new color combo territory! Also had to get creative to cover up the thumbscrew. Shoutout to Elmer's Glue.

Some free-hand, Scandinavian-inspired blackwork. I did this one on a looooong plane flight. Anyone else working in this style? #embroidery #sewing #handsewn #fibre #fiber #textilearts #Scandinavia #craftiverseplus

I love Jacobean #blackwork, aka #holbeinstitch, a centuries-old form of embroidery that involves precision and repetition. This piece, that fits in the palm of your hand, took about 6 hours. Any other blackwork enthusiasts out there? #sewing #embroidery #handsewing #textiles #historicaltextiles

Getting weird with some thrift store cloth + yarn scraps.
