1. I finished “Blackbird”!

Her face is hand painted. She wears a dress made from shimmery purple fabric, batiked fabric and lovely vintage black lace. Very delicate! She touches twisty branches where a blackbird perches. Sparkley silver stars shine behind her.

Two blackbird feathers adorn the top of the wall hanging. They are made from hand painted fabric and LOTS of shiny silver thread.

A nest on the bottom left side of the wall hanging houses three blackbird eggs.

This magical PINK bag has one padded shoulder strap (sling it across your chest), peacock feather ties, and is made from super SOFT and very durable fabric!

Detail of the hand painted face, appliqued by ME!

Inside has a cute pocket with a butterfly applique.

“Blue Peacock Feather” fae bag. Very detailed fae applique on front, peacock feather ties, long strap fits comfortably across chest. And a dragonfly too! This one is a smaller size!!!

Heres what it looks like on…

Inside had a pocket with cute dragonfly applique! The lining is made from authentic licensed Cicely Mary Barker Faerie print fabric! SOOO cute.

I have been incredibly busy stitching up new creations. Here’s a teaser photo! Five new peacock faerie bags coming tomorrow (includes other things of wonder such as dragonflies, butterflies and the moon!).

My peacock feather faerie bags are quite popular! I have decided to make a series of 5 one of a kind bags with this theme in the following colors:
red, light dusty blue, dusty rose, lavender and sage green. I have some fabulous super soft velveteen-like fabrics I’m going to use. AND- the peacock feathers are going to be funky unnatural colors to match the bags…but still VERY much recognizable as the beautiful feathers that they are.
AND, for those of you that wanted a more detailed picture of my applique work from the last bag- here it is…

interested? let me know!

I had a few bags for sale at Faerieworlds. Look at this photo that the super talented took of the booth! The sunlight seems to be shimmering down on my faerie bag! Look carefully- you’ll find it…its smack dab in the middle. Ohh, and all those clothes. *wishes* I was there, I would have had a shopping spree!

Finished! I love the colors in this one…blue hair! Each piece of fabric is appliqued separately and her face and the peacock feathers are hand painted from my design. It even has peacock feather ties! The inside even has an applique on the pocket. Sparkly thread accents the feathers. Fit for a faerie goddess!

My new Pfaff 1530!!!! This machine BURIES my Kenmore Singer down to sewing machine hell. The heat then MELTS its shabby little plastic parts and BURNS it to a sewing machine skeleton (an aluminum one). Bah!!!
I LOVE THIS MACHINE!!! Power, precision, AND it stitches up all my fae bag appliques. I’m back in business! Look at what I’m working on…finally!!

BACK TO WORK!
