Soysilk

*sigh* the soysilk is giving me fits, I think I'll be leaving this fiber alone for a while. Too bad though, I love playing with it... except that it doesn't work right O_o
Looks like all the color wants to rinse out again. I've gotten it to set before, and I thought the second time worked. Sigh. Oh well, I'll just keep playing with this fiber for me until I figure it out! (after a break...)

recent work

I've been playing with my clay a little bit recently, I've made two sheep and a stitchmarker set. I have to varnish the pieces still, hopefully tomorrow will be good for that! This is not an ideal photo, just thrown together to display what I've been working on recently, and all the pieces need some work still (the light switch cover in the back is for scale). Each curl on the sheep is carefully hand shaped and placed onto the body, after forming and hardening the legs, tail, and face :)
