Finished Projects

[Dustin]

We finished the belt pouch! My wife sewed the belt loops onto the back because my hands were too big to do it, but I did the side stitching (just a simple whip stitch), and the design is mine. It's cut and sewn from one single piece of leather that was in a bag of Tandy scrap leather I bought at Hobby Lobby for three bucks. The concho we already had, and the string is a boot lace that was lying around the house.





I think I did pretty good for a first attempt.

I finally finished my entire Greek second impression. 





I also remade the subarmour for my first Greek impression with layered linen instead of the fringe look a few pages back.  Now I need to decide which one of these two to wear to Texas Ren Fair Halloween.  Tough call.

Wow.

I made a wreath!  I've never done it before, I just got it in my head that I wanted to make one.  So I went to the store, got the stuff (60% off at Michaels yay!) and voila!

Dustin- you inspire me ,I might have to try one too.Looks great.

Chris B-that is fantastic-WOW!

Zoe-Your'e wreath is very pretty, I just love fall colors. It's beautiful.

I am totally speechless at the Greek armor work. They are gorgeous sets, and to think HANDMADE...WOW.
Everyone's work is REALLY great!!! I'm getting ideas!! lol

I dabble a little in woodburning, whittling, jewelry making, sewing, cross stitching, and broom making...but nothing actually renaissance. I did make the blouse (no pattern), skirt (no pattern), wreath style bracelet, and ear rings in my faery picture. 

[Ranna]

I tired my hand at wire earring wraps per a very special request.   Here's a finished one that I would actually dubb jewlery.  No piercing required!

[mieljolie]

That wire earring wrap is beautiful, Ranna!  I would so wear those!


I wanted to show off my new turkish vest made of can tabs.  I like it much better than the old empire waist bodice I first made.  This one is way more comfortable to move around in.  And, it's more adjustable, too.





I've got more pics of this one and one I made with a belt for a Craft swap on my blog:  http://mieljolie.blogspot.com.

Finally got around to painting some of my hairsticks... I have a winter exchange coming up for a pagan group on campus

[mieljolie]

Those are wonderful, gypsylakat!  I really like the yellow tipped ones.  Now, if you could incorporate some can tabs in there somewhere.  Hehe  BTW, I still have a growing pile of chopsticks forming over here.  Let me know if you run out. 

[gypsylakat]

we just grabbed like 5 more from one of the campus restaurants. We're in exam week right now so I may wait until winter break to grab them (like the 17th) i'll be stir crazy at my house with no internet (ok. some internet, just dialup)

This quilt took me over 13 years to finally complete.  It is 72 1/4" square.  Machine pieced & quilted.  Binding was machine applied then hand finished all by yours truly.   

[Molden]

Congratulations Sweetie!!! 

I know how much you put into it and 'tis a beauteous thing indeed!

I can't wait to get to see it in person. 

[Manwariel]

That's a beautiful quilt!

R hand carved these candlesticks and I stained them. There are 2 different sets of 3. They are white oak. We gave them both as Christmas gifts.
