I still need to finish framing her, but man, I'm happy with how she turned out. Trying to come up with a name. Gimme some help? Ideas I've had are:
Smashing the Glass Ceiling
Mad as Hell
Breaking Free
Making Her Own Way

Busted out the scroll frame for this one. How about some words of wisdom from RBG during these trying times?

She's had it up to here with your glass ceiling.

Finally finished machine piecing this not-my-favorite-fabrics top. Not only the print but the black frayed terribly. Hate to do it but leftover fabric will be tossed.
Now it's going in my #worksinprogress basket under another two tops waiting their turn to be sandwiched and #handquilted.

Next wip in the hoop... What is she punching?

I've been super busy this last week, so progress on this piece is slower than normal. The next few days aren't any less crazy, so fingers crossed I get this where I want it.

Moving on to my next project! It's been sitting in my #worksinprogress basket since November of last year.

This might be the third iteration, but I finally have a clear path forward with this one. There's a show coming up, with a theme of feminine spirit. Me? My spirit is barely hanging on right now.

From the encaustic workshop I took at the Charles H. Taylor on Saturday. Felt much more confident with the medium this time.
Going to finish them up. Happy with the progress so far, tho. 1/2

Working on leaves for a fall-themed necklace. Lots of leaves to go and a looking deadline

Working on some #DragonAge content. The #Evanuris Masquerade. These are just #worksinprogress #3drenders with #Daz3d. This is the second Evanuris I'm working on, my interpretation of #Andruil. #Dragonageorigins #dragonageinquisition #dragonage2 #dragonagetheveilguard
Although the actual website is depressingly normal. My challenge to this cricket academy is to redesign their site to be just as outlandish.

Yes, my desk is a mess. I know. Shuddup.
Shout out to the DAV Thrift Store in Hampton for both the big quilting hoop seen here and the gorgeous frame I'm using.

I think I've finished all the flowers for this piece and figured out the layout. Now, I need to cut a piece for wood to fit the frame I'm using, attach fabric, etc. etc.

More beaded flowers. This is a larger scale than I usually work with, as I generally work with 11/0 and 15/0 beads, and these are 6/0 and 8/0. But, since these are for a larger piece, I thought I'd see how they worked. So far, so good.

Time to work on some beaded flowers for this skull. A little life and death.
Back to listening to Malevolent and making flowers.

This tulle on this piece is from a tutu found on the road. Part of it was even melted from being stuck to a muffler. Giving it a few seconds chances in new pieces.

Yesterday's progress on my crushed/melting ice piece. I have a few more cross pieces to put on and a little more fringe. Had to stop mid day to run some really crappy errands, but ya know, that's just 2026.
Also,🖕🏼🧊

Enjoy some progress shots from yesterday as I've done nothing but get tax stuff together today. Because nothing lifts your spirits from a murderous fascist regime like taxes 🙄

Today, I started working on a piece that I'm doing in the reverse of how I normally do things. I'm starting with a name - Crushed Ice.

Can you tell what my favorite embroidery stitch is? 👀 Love them. Once I figured them out when I was younger, I was off. So much texture with just a few wraps of floss around a needle. I know people hate them, give me all the French knots.
