I've been remiss in posting pictures of my projects. As I mentioned, my buddies and I made purses out of hardcover books last week. I may make a few more--actually, Shad and I did some screenprinting on some book covers and I may turn those into purses eventually. I'm generally not exactly a fan of mass-producing things, so I'll probably get sick of it after making just one more but you never know. Anyhoo, these pics are all taken in the screenprinting room a/k/a the most attractive area of the whole house...hence, the cinderblocks, furnace, kitty litter, and whatever else happens to be in the background. OK, without further adieu...The Projects.





The skirt I made last weekend out of the groovy 1960s fabric found at estate sale.





Suit I embellished this weekend. I picked up the suit for $7.99 at the Value Village, then cut circles in it to insert fabric--these fabric pieces are from a textured upholstry fabric sample set I picked up at the Textile Center's rummage sale last year. I'm not sure if the photo pics it up very well, but there's embroidery stitching around each circle and the pockets and lapel.





Oops, that one was sideways. I'm too lazy to fix it.
