bookmarks galore

There are times when you have to think of something to give to someone who seem to have everything. These are bookmarks I made to be given away as a gift to some book-loving friends (and I have a lot of them!): One is a flower bookmark, another is a mouse bookmark sitting on my WIP (that is supposed to be a scarf in progress), three others that I am still trying to think a name for, and a heart bookmark.

Flowers: Big and small

So, here are some flowers I experimented with. Short projects I get preoccupied with when my mind rejects difficult rumination.

Turnips and Davao pomelo, anyone?

Hungry for something luscious? Here are two turnips and a crosswise cut of a davao pomelo. Since I was 15 I had been experimenting with straight chain stitches and filets. Perhaps it is high time to try my hand at something stuffed?
How's that?
