Snow Attack!! 白雪攻擊!!

Second, I want to share with you my love to this nature +" snow"!


I never see or touch snow in my life. It's winter again! I know probably this year I will now be able to see the snow . I felt that I have been attached by the image of snow_The fantasy of white snow world has been constructed in my mind silently. I can't help drawing them on all my sketches.

Above are my sketches of planters and iceland.

One more thing for the love of S N O W _ An Icelandic movie called
Nói albino.

I hope I make sense here with my very random thoughts
and also

Have a wonderful winter day with or without snow!

Made with 100% love

There were 3 birthday parties in 2 days, and I was non stop weaving before and between the parties. In one of party I was so worried about the other unfinished scarf... yes, I'm totally exhausted now. But nothing happier than seeing their surprising and satisfing expressions on their faces. Wishing them a "warm" winter!!


I have to clean up the mess I created over the weekend!

Focus

I have been working on sketches for prints. I had a lot of things in mind and always interrupted by some new ideas . I was doing 6 different ones at the same time. I drove myself CRAZY..... So I think maybe it's good time to focus on only one at a time.

I like fall! (It's more like fall here ) I love the air, the light in my room and those falling leaves. So Wonderful!

New things

Yes, I bought a loom!!

It was a table loom but Baba turned it into a floor loom. I also did my first project with this loom, a scarf for CL_ a belated birthday gift . I used 100% alpaca and 100%wool. I just wash it and it become so fluffy (even more soft now). The gray parts also stand out now.

mmm, What should I do for next one??

Tsurukichi at tortoise!!

We saw this indigo hand die textile show in Tortoise and I bought this hand die cotton yarn. Somehow I didn't take any pictures of the show, I guess I was so amazed by what I saw there. The hand die yard look like " live creature" to me.... they look like they are part of nature.

I found some more pictures about it thru internet.

Follow the light!

One of nicest thing to live in LA is the enormous light and airy spaces. I wish I can follow the light whole day just like cats, but I can't move my desktop computer around the house!
