flowers and dolls

I have been busy sewing and more sewing. My new obsession with textiles has expanded to felting. It is a very satisfying procedure that involves constantly stabbing chunks of wool with needles. These felted pieces have been added to my growing doll collection. They are still in the beginning stages but are evolving in a pleasing way.

I recently added some of these cut flowers I made out of parchment. The parchment is such an interesting material and so beautiful, some of the pieces have tiny hairs in really delicate patterns.  

These are some new paintings I am working on.
