Paper Icosahedrons

The beautiful shapes of geometry are everywhere.  I love making these cardboard icosahedrons. Twenty circles with three sides bent up in an equalized triangle shape then glued together with a string added to hang. I like to hang them up in a group to see a colors and how the light reflects off the sides of the cardboard.

Flickr - Memories

There are many past memories on my past Flickr account. I found the log-in information and finally able to see the stream of photos again. It is the memories of what was happening at the time of the photos that is nice to remember. I made a new Flickr account when I could not find the old log-in info, because why not make things complicated. Ugh. 

The new Flickr account does mark a shift of time. It seems I am always starting something sort of new, instead of seeing an idea through. Cardinal sign issue. It is true, I have an overwhelming amount of ideas, with little energy for follow through, and nothing gets very far. Now, that I have some awareness around this issue, I'm trying to shift that energy a little. It would make things more fun to get some momentum going.

Focus can be so difficult for me. So many projects to make - all at once, of course! Tear drop bags have been one of my endeavors. I love the shape of the bag. I have sewn a few and have a few in various stages of creation in my sewing attic.

I want to start doing shows again. Realistically, probably not until next year. I like the connection to people at the shows. 

I like to connect with people through the things I make. I did not realize that about myself until I took a class at Mei Pak's Creative Hive site. And, in true Cardinal sign that I am, I have not completed the wonderfully informative class . . . but I will. It is on my never ending list.

Zig Zag Fabric for doll clothes

I looked for a long time for the right zig zag to fit doll clothes. I could not find it. So, I design a zig zag that wound fit a doll. Find the fabric at Spoonflower!

  

 

Have fun!!!
