Stained Glass Windows, Dragonfly and Freeform Crochet

Stained Glass Windows

Painted Dragonfly ACEO 2.5 x 3.5 inches
This is my entry for Nibblefest this month, which starts on the 20th. All bids begin at 99 cents on Ebay for one week. The NFAC Dragonfly theme inspired me to mimic the wearable art I designed this week, keeping with the stained glass motif. I will be listing this one on Ebay Sept 20th. 

Freeform Crochet Scarfette and Beret
My latest wearable ART freeform crochet hat and scarfette inspired by a bit of variegated yarn. Look closely in the little circles. It reminded me of a stained glass window so I just went with that and finished it in a couple of days, and made a French beret hat to match. Available on Etsy. This is a one of a kind bold statement for brave fashionistas!

    How beautiful! I have never tried crochet, but imagine it to be not only a lot of work, but Zen-like requiring some dreamy attention to the process.

      Hi, Gloria, Yes, crochet and all needlework is a meditative process, especially when you do freeform and don't follow a pattern, just letting the yarn and hook lead you.

    I am so late on PPF visits this week but glad I didn't miss this one... Especially so I can drool over your free form crochet... As a novice it blows my mind how good you are!

    Both pieces are beautifully done! Love the boldness of the scarf. I wish I were bold enough to wear it!
