The Phantom blogger...


Hey everybody. I feel like a phantom blogger. I'm working on my journal pages, I just haven't put them up... I think I've been intimidated by the blogging part. I've been keeping up with reading your entries but haven't done any myself, since the introduction one. So here it goes. My pieces are 4 inches by 6 inches. I'm using various techniques, weaving beads on a loom, weaving tapestry on a loom, bead embroidery with a paper backing, needle-felting and quilting.
I finished the bead embroidery part of September's page in August (I was a bit excited) but got stuck on weaving the background. So I went ahead and did Oct and Nov and Dec, but felt like I shouldn't put them up, until I finished the rest of Sept. September's is now finished and I'm working on January, so I'm still a bit behind, but coming along! Not to mention out of order.

Click here to go to the Copperloom blog - to see pictures....I need to work on better photos - but these give you an idea.

I so much appreciate you taking the photos and posting them, despite your intimidation... I suspect many of us have been through the intimidation phase (and sometimes still are frustrated/confused by blogging)... the good news is that it gets easier the more you do it. OK... now for the good part... I'm off to Copperloom to see your BJP!!!! Hugs, Robin A.

Wow, everyone... don't miss seeing Cindy's work... she's using bead embroidery, tapestry weaving (with yarns), seminole piecing, needle felting... and it's amazing! Robin A.

Thanks Robin - your work is so amazing and I've loved your books for years. You've been such a positive artistic role model for me. Thank you! Cindy

I double posted, sorry about that.

I *haven't* been keeping up with my BJP. Total burnout this fall. But recently I've done some charity pieces and it has me in the mood again.

More on this in my own post.
