Temari Balls

[em-en.livejournal.com]

Before I tried knitting or bookbinding or screen printing, temari balls were my crafting obsession. These are over 10 years old (please excuse the dust).

If you are interested in learning temari, I highly recommend Diana Vandervoort's book Temari: How to Make Japanese Thread Balls (ISBN 0-87040-881-X). It has very clear instructions and is illustration heavy, just what you want in a craft book. Vandervoort has a few follow-up books with additional techniques/patterns.

Maternity dress

I made a new maternity dress from a non-maternity pattern. I made a couple changes to the pattern, and I'm very pleased with the results.

Pirates and Fairies, oh my!

On Deviantart.com I've gotten involved with some swaps. I've decided to try to craft as much of the swap stuff as I can, supplementing with other local or random nice things. Anyway, it's been an excuse to craft like crazy - which is always good!
