Popped back to Adelaide on the weekend so I’m now chasing my tail to catch up with everything. Been playing with a bit of paperclay. I love this stuff – air dries and you can stitch through it. Here’s a small sample of some of the bling I’ve been creating…
Paperclay Bling
It paints up really, is very light and easy to manage. Here’s a few of the unpainted shapes. I think I created about three dozen!!
Unpainted Bling
Its all to go on a little piece I’m creating for ATASDA but I’m coming down to the wire on the dead line as I’ve only got till April 9 to get it in. The full piece is currently like this…
A little textile..
Its a work in progress which must progress a bit faster. I was checking out the placement of all the little pieces for this shot. Also its handy having a copy of where everything is meant to go. OK, back to stitching. Have a great week everyone!

Hi Susan
They look great. I’ve still got my sample pack you gave me before you left Adelaide! I’m waiting for some inspiration…currently sewing 2 Irish dancing costumes for my neice and her freind! Never attempted anything so eleborate before. Quite a challenge. Hopefully some new art will come soon.
Cheers
