The Making Hour .14

Last month I bought some air-drying clay to make some little tags for presents. There were lots left so this week we decided to make wonderful wonky things.

I decided to have a play about with some stitching. Revisiting some I used to use a lot in my degree work and some ones I hadn’t tried before. All of the stitches had one thing in common, they were very decorative.

I seem to be saying this each week but I needed The Making Hour this week, a little bit of creative exercise. This week I decided to make a simple book from a collage I had been experimenting with.

This problem-solving element of making is something I absolutely love but you need to have the time to make mistakes and experiment. Often I get these making hours at night-time and its the way I relax. After making these little cases I got my embroidery out, a cup of tea and some good rubbish on tv. Bliss!

From scrap paper to ace decorations! Plus there’s something calming about just sitting with a cuppa folding some paper.
