I love letting gradient thread do all the work for me . I've started stocking up for Denver Fan Expo so expect a lot of journal posts! I picked up a 2nd convention this year which makes the time crunch all that much more pressing.

Meet Aimée, Aimée is a vampire, she's around 275 years old. She's married to Amir and they have a grand anniversary coming up, they'll be married for 250 years and they're still very much in love, Aimée asked Amir to turn her on their wedding night so they could be together forever... She loves gardening and grows the ingredients for the special herbal tea they drink so they can go out in the daylight.

Day 39 of avoiding a design project I'm really stuck on:

I made myself a new hat.

It's mostly hand sewn and fully lined, so that should give you some reference on how bad my creative block is right now.

Newsboy cap, #cotton #denim and thread, with poly thread in the #linen liner.

The second bag from @clurigt that i've finished now. Its a small one, just enough for one mobile phone and the wallet. I really like the simplicity and its now one of my biggest (smallest) favorite bags.

A brown leather bag in the size to just keep a mobilephone and a wallet, hanging in front of a lilac hedge without any leaves. Thrue the hedge you can se some trees and a blue sky in the background.
The bag is neatly stitch with a brown thread, and the string of the bag are in a black fabric, probable polyester or nylon, looking almost like a belt in a car.

Meet Amir, Amir is a vampire, he's very old, roughly 500 years, he can't remember exactly when he was born. He takes special herbal teas so he can be out in the daylight. His favourite colour is purple and he has his own style, he doesn't care that people find him odd or excentric.
He's handsewn from thrifted materials and old clothes.
