I took a Mixed Media Fantasy Illustration class with Christina Romeo last month. Now I can't stop making these fun little creatures. Using watercolor, Micron pens, collage papers and my imagination.

Welt Pocket fun
Well I'd like to say that the "welt pocket" was fun, but it really wasn't. I always try to do some testers before actually cutting into fabric that I spent several weeks making.
The pocket turned out. There are some things I could have done differently but I didn't. I always learn something.
I am finally done with this project and I am very happy with the outcome.

I found the perfect Lining fabric
I my stash of fabrics I found the perfect lining. So I jumped the gun. Putting in the Lining before pockets and belt loops. Oh' well so it goes. Now I'm contemplating putting in a slash pocket.
Honestly I'm very ready to have this project finished.

Seeing an end
Well, I'm finally seeing an end to this project. I can't even count the hours I have spent sewing scraps of fabric together. Yesterday I cut out my pattern. I do have to say it was a bit scary!
I'm very happy with what it looks like so far. Still needs a belt and lining fabric. It'll be a fun one to wear.

The latest of my fabric venture
Every day this week I have made a little more progress on this project. Rearranging the squares of fabric in a manner, so that they flow. And every time I add more fabric the flow changes.
All this is done with scraps of fabric that I have saved, for I don't know how many years?!? I want to turn it into a Bathrobe. Now I have to decide how or if I want to line it??? Stay tuned

This is our newest member "Archie". He is quite the character. The other day we found him here.
I'm continuing to work on making fabric. It's been very cold outside and this has been keeping me busy.
