A Little Stitching.....

I have been so busy with custom work since Christmas I haven't had much time to work on any models....mind you ,I have a whole draw full of worked models destined for the finisher for various shows, but I feel that I always need more...afterall..people love to see the finished projects...I am ashamed to admit that these two little Squiggee sweaters are the first such sweaters I have actually worked....I can see why they are popular..they go oh so fast..these are on 13st... I used various fibers and beads , but the main background on both is Baroque Silks....it gave the sweaters a very rich full look.....of course there is always some fibers that sparkle...that is just part of Squiggee's charm....anyway...they were quick and fun...the snowman sweater is destined for a special project..it is just one element and when I finish the others I will reveal all....the ho ho ho sweater will probably be made up into an ornament....we will see...........that is the best part getting things back from the finisher...my favorite part in fact....I seem to be gaining ground on my custom work, I have some large exciting things to paint.......the flurry of orders for my little Squiggee Custom name flip flops is a hint that people are thinking Spring.......I despair..our outside is snow mountains...it looks like the inside of an empty refrigerator , and it has been so cold that one night ,I actually wore my sweater over my nightgown to bed....please... someone turn up the heat!
