quiet (but busy)

 It has been quiet here on my blog.
That happens sometimes
(especially after my busy Pinktober month !!!)
But I can say that I wasn't idling my days away !
(although I did a lot of reading)

There was another "(Un)perfect 10 gram" meeting at the end of November
We had to work in black
and the motto was "facing black"
with a bit of sparkle, or lights.
I must say I have no problems with that colour
(I'm often wearing it)

Like always we had a fun meeting 
with lots of inventive products.
I made a black "Möbius" ring
but still have to make a little video to see it best.





In November we also had a new Stitch Club workshop that I took part in : stitching on metal
but
I only did a try out on paper
(and skipped the metal in the end)

Then I was busy making our Xmas/New Year cards for this year.


COLOUR AND GLITTER !
(and I made some presents BUT those are still a secret !)

Then, after we had a fun party celebrating the Dutch "Sint Nicolaas",
I could start with a brand new Stitch Club workshop
by Tina Marais

Because my hands are not in the best shape at the moment
I wanted to make something small first.
(so I had 8 cm to work on instead of the suggested 40 !)
The imagined "seed pod" I made from (poly) felt
and some plastic beads.



But this left me wanting more   :-)
and I took the original idea, though still working "micro" !


One down, one to go

When the "further development" came for something wearable
(which I did already . . .)
my choice went to
felt
(and my own design)
 

Nearly finished

And with lots of seed beads stitched on I have now a lovely set that goes together



Happy !
Thanks Tina Marais for the inspiration !
