Creative with clay Visit my website at http://www.creativewithclay.com I love to create unique colorful pottery inspired by Indian fabrics, colors and embroidery.

Having lived in India for a significant part of my life, color has always influenced me especially with my mother running a boutique designing clothes for brides and bridesmaids. My work also reflects my love for Bollywood movies and my fascination with life in India. I strive to give life to clay, decorating it with Indian influences.

Why do I do this to myself? Trying my hand at dyeing fabric. Mostly samples of dyes I had on hand, some mixes.
My favorite are the real muddy colors I got from the mixing the left overs and dyeing pieces of a colored cotton bedsheet. Which one is your favorite?
Got great tips from online class.

In case you were wondering… I am still making mugs…
At the Whidbey Island Spin-in, I was asked by 4 people if I had quit making mugs. (This is in spite of having mugs at the event).
It is true that I have been focusing on teaching spinning this year and not vending at my regular shows like Fiber Fusion and Black sheep gathering this year.
I am also working on my quilts, but regardless, I am still making mugs and fulfilling my online orders.
If and when I plan to quit… I will let you know. 🙏

Right 2/3 reds has been seamed with some simplification from original design.
So many partial seams! I have done may be one or two partial seams in an entire quilt, but because the order of sewing, this one kept throwing me off.
There was a lot of use of the seam ripper and a lot of partial seaming along gentle curves.
One good thing is that I got better at it. 😁
Now the left needs to be tackled

Continuing spin on my Red Panda. Rambouillet silk is probably my favorite blend right now.
The white bit of fiber in between is to separate the braids.

I needed to wash some fabrics for a garment sewing class and thought I should also wash all my solid dark fabrics in the same wash. That is in preparation for another workshop I am hoping to get in.
I had put in color catchers just in case but fortunately there was very little color bleed if any.
But Oh what a mess of tangled, roped, highly wrinkled cotton to deal with. Some tips I got were to zig zag the edges to avoid fraying and removing from the dryer while hot and fold right away.
Took me more than 2 days ironing these to be in a foldable stage.
Next the light colors… 😅

Crochet blanket that I started in 2019 is finally done.
I had finished crocheting and blocking the blocks in 2021 and then they just sat in closet as I didn’t get around to seaming them.
Big THANKS to for seaming the blocks for me and she did such an amazing job.
I crochet the scallop border, wove in all the ends, got blocked again and it is DONE!
I have a love hate relationship with crochet… seeing it finished is giving me some thoughts 🤭
