I liked yesterday's #inkyDays drawing so much that I did one on watercolor paper. I also made some progress on a bigger floral piece. So much drawing today :)

Working on a new drawing on watercolor paper with an abstract floral and network pattern. My drawing is next to my glass dipping pen and ink pallet.

#WIPWednesday is attempting to recover from transporting this Tønder lace. I took a workshop with Bobbi Donnelly and ended up trying 2 pieces, without enough bobbins. So I had to unwind my first set. Trying to re-wind them now. So far, only one thread broke.

First time I used 140/2 cotton thread. It scares me. So thin. But it is lovely and delicate in the completed pieces. I can see the appeal.

#BobbinLace #TønderLace

Close up of the mat project. You can really only see the tops of a lot of steel pins. You can kind of see the edge work on the right. It alternates between cloth stitch sections that appear fully covered, and the Copenhagen hole stitches that leave a gap in the center of the oval and all the stitches are smushed up against the edge. The pattern notes solid | hole | solid | hole, so I can remember which one to do at each section. The unworked part has the thread outline and the pin holes for the next sections. Various threads hang off the incomplete part.
I didn't think I'd get to a second project so I didn't bring more bobbins. I hastily set up for this second one. But I was able to try another new-to-me stitch, the gimp fingers. They are tricky to do with threads winding back and forth in really short order. The advice was to make sure you deal with the tension of them constantly so they don't slip around. Anyway, my little practice piece is a mess, sitting on red felt next to the pattern printouts. My honeycombs are a mess but I just wanted to get to the fingers to be sure I tried them a couple of times during the workshop with the instructor there.

• A long wait at my GP’s yesterday meant I finished my autumnal mitosis sampler except for signing. I’ll be writing a pattern for this one!

Working on a little experiment, with some of the prints I started from one of this year's challenges.

I've been meaning to start these for ages, but didn't have the energy until now.

Oh, this one is hard to describe. On top of one of my generative art prints, with lots of blobby shapes, I've embroidered chain stitches along the edges of one of the blobby shapes.

My this week is tracking down this historic lace pricking [the paper or parchment with the pin holes for our pattern].

Found in Gertrude Whiting's "Tools and toys of stitchery" from 1928.

I found the ship--it is an Edward Savage rare print from 1799. I couldn't believe it. Anyone with insights--please share.

un nouveau juste pour m'amuser. 21 cm en tout, en carbone puis trempé, avec un aspect brut de forge. La soie de la lame est traversante et vissée au pommeau.
Le manche est en loupe de stabilisé (par mes soins).
La mitre est en ébène et le pommeau et en laiton sur lequel j'ai limé une espèce de soleil. La lame est courte et large, ça lui donne une bonne ligne.

vidéo à l'extérieur, avec ma main qui tourne le couteau sous tous les angles, c'est la fin de journée, le soleil est rasant,

• I’ve finished the tiny electric blue whipped back stitch along the main vagus. Now for some freehand burgundy in the gut area in perlé thread.

WIP of another fursuit commission I am working on. This one's going to be a Charr. :blobfoxpeekowo: Compared to the simple two colored one Kianga has, this one turned out to take slightly longer. 24 pieces and amazingly they all seem to fit in the end!

Surprised it looks rather thick, the base is only 8cm diameter. I guess the fluffy fur really makes them floofy.

My project of the day. Or of these days.

But I'm getting close to finishing it. It's a top down worked short sleeve top and I'm adding a border similar to the one around the neckline / on the sleeves at the bottom of the shirt, 5 or 6 repeats of the lace row.

And one of them is already done.

Next decisions: how to finish the neckline and whether I need a finish around sleeve ends.

Thinking about a string of thoughts as a string of beads today.

I didn't get around to posting yesterday's drawing here, but it's on my Patreon and Ko-fi:

Another day, another playful iteration of this pattern.

Here's an in-progress shot.

Yes, that's the glass dipping pen I do my drawing with.

Today's drawing is inspired by one of my single-pen drawings I did post-op in the hospital. I shared it in last month's post.

Here's an in-progress shot.

It's a new month, so I've started new posts for my daily drawings and thoughts on Patron and Ko-fi:

Playing with adding a delicate fill, of very diluted blue ink, to this delicate pattern. I think I'm liking it, kinda. Not sure yet.

On the health front, my recovery continues to go well and I feel stronger every day.

Trying this pattern with a bright warm orange ink for today's #inkyDays drawing.
