poppets....

Poppets are frankly a bit of a pain in the ass to make, they are fiddly and have a mind of their own. This one was a request from a swap partner, She was to be a sort of fairy gothy type, I sent her to her new home with a little photograph album. This I made from scrapbooking paper, using a stab stitch binding.

these are a few of my more recent crafts,

This was a simple swap journal I made, japanese stab stitch binding over cardboard covers with scrabooking papers. I am having a small bookbinding obsession at the moment,

This (bad pic, sorry) is a soft suede bound book, again stitched, heavy watercolour paper inside with an exposed binding, leather ties and little brads for accents...such restraint is not something that i often manage!

for a swap a partner requested a little bird, this was from a tute online, The pictures are not fabulous, but they give you an idea of how he looked, he is about 4inches high

 

Work in progress a little blackbird with a wizards hat..plenty of glitter of course, he is made from poly clay
