American smocking of a iridescent lycra.

I'm having a shit day.

I've handed up my stuff for class but it's too late, it will never be any more than a pass.

What's worse, the lecturer was exclaiming over the level of complexity, and then turned around and said "but it's late!"

Like. Yes. I know. Nothing I could have done to speed things up.

I think I'll go home and have a cider.

My dodgy start to quilting. I wish I could get a better photo of the colour, it’s actually really lovely

Forgot to add the picture of my finished beading and sequining sample.

Tambour embroidery and sequining. Tambour frustrates me. I feel like it should be something that flows and makes sense and is quick, and it's just... Not. I'm so much faster with my normal technique. It could be the tambour needles I'm using. It could be my technique. It could be my thread. It could be that my frustration is making things harder. In any case, I think I'll just keep this in my list of "things that can be improved... If I get the time."

Now I have to work out what I want to put in the center of the flowers

[devilinthedetaildesigns]

Work in progress. (just trying different techniques. I ran out of thread!)

It took some wrangling, but I'm finally enrolled in uni for this semester.

Couture finishes and fabric manipulation, oh, my!
