amanda hugandkiss: Studio: Lace and Indigo Printing

http://ahxo.blogspot.com/2010/06/studio-lace-and-indigo-printing.html

June 14, 2010. Studio: Lace and Indigo Printing. Indigo block printing, we made our own blocks out of foam and used traditional Czech "pap" as a resist. Lucia indigo dyed our fabric at her home studio. After she was done, we came over to her house for tea, cake, and to watch how the process worked. Of course I forgot my camera, so click on over to Susannah's blog for photos of that day! She also updates more quickly than me ahh. After two weeks of making lace, we're still at pre-beginners level.

Nelly Face: April 2009

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 6, 2009. It's a Ruff life. Sunday, April 5, 2009. Today Wonder of the World closed. I was the assistant stage manager and wardrobe mistress, and let me just tell you, I am so happy it's done! Not that there weren't fun parts, because there were, but I just do not want to be an assistant stage manager EVER AGAIN. Forget about it. Anyway, gaze upon the clown. Saturday, April 4, 2009. Behind it, she's a crazy person. Here's some poor sewing machine drowning in fire proof fabric. Its a Ruff life.

Nelly Face: Israel

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2009/01/israel.html

Sunday, January 4, 2009. Baruch atah Hashem Elokenu melech haolam, shelo asani goy, shelo asani aved, shelo asani isha. This is an old jewish prayer that says "Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who did not make me a Gentile, who did not make me a slave, who did not make me a woman." As I am about to travel to Israel, I feel the obvious need to make up a new prayer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I miss you I love you and Yarn! View my complete profile.

Nelly Face: August 2008

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Saturday, August 30, 2008. In which I go on a slightly insane political tangent. Kids  Could they be any cuter? 160;Just keep bringing those kids out, its like having a panda.  No one can resist the cute.  Vote for me! And did a much better job) Pretty much all of the presidents had about thirteen kids, except for George Washington, who was too neurotic, and James Buchanan, who was probably gay.   So I decided to just find some highlights. David, John, Julia, Lachlan. Trot and Tad.   Nabby. Most Bad Ass ...

Monday, April 6, 2009. It's a Ruff life. Please tell me someone's going to wear that around their neck. April 12, 2009 at 1:24 PM. I'm not sure wearing it around the waist is a whole lot better.

Nelly Face: May 2008

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Saturday, May 31, 2008. Drew me the most beautiful thing! I wish to always be surrounded by leafy-ness and wild life. I wish I could have sheets or a sweatshirt or something printed with this repeat! Some Santa Fe Yarn. Some other knitting minded people at the Opera took me to see some Santa Fe yarn stores. My favorite was the Santa Fe School of Weaving. Here's a picture of the dye lot, but I'm going to get it in super fine silk wool blend. Its fifty dollars! But you get 300 feet. We'll see. It was the m...

Nelly Face: October 2008

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 13, 2008. If you were overwhelmed by the New Englandy-ness of my last post, you better look away, because my mom and I just went on a wool arts tour. Of New Hampshire. The Blimp, which has followed me from Holland, smiled upon the fibersy-ness of our trip. I think my favorite stop was at the Chauncey Farm. Ellen Dumas told us all about getting into sheep farming (something Mom and I have been really interested in, ever since I heard about. The mill in Mora, New Mexico. And the landscape w...

Nelly Face: July 2008

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 29, 2008. I went to the Spanish Festival in downtown Santa Fe on my one day off. The visual culture here is just so different than the old protestent greenery of the north, it never fails to shock me a little bit.  I met this amazing woman selling beautiful weavings and yarn she had spun in a mill that she built herself in Mora, New Mexico. Here's the website for her mill:  http:/ www.tapetesdelana.com/. Who knows what the future holds.  But in the meanwhile, fibers! Monday, July 28, 2008.

Sunday, April 5, 2009. Today Wonder of the World closed. I was the assistant stage manager and wardrobe mistress, and let me just tell you, I am so happy it's done! Not that there weren't fun parts, because there were, but I just do not want to be an assistant stage manager EVER AGAIN. Forget about it. Anyway, gaze upon the clown. It's nice to have you back!

Nelly Face: Big Sewing.

http://nellyface.blogspot.com/2009/04/big-sewing.html

Saturday, April 4, 2009. The Hubbard Street Dance Company hired me to make a backdrop. It was so huge that we laid it out in one of the dance studios. Behind it, she's a crazy person.
