5, 4, 3, 2, 1 things

Craft did a little interview with someone and I really liked the way they did it. I thought it would be fun to do the same thing...with me!

One Project You Are Particularly Proud Of

1. My multi-piece self-portrait inspired by Ed Emberley

Two Mistakes You've Made in the Past

2. Using really, really long lengths of embroidery floss

Three Things That Make Your Work Unique

1. Personality in the mundane
2. Not-quite-kawaii faces
3. Small simplicities

Four Tools You Love to Use

  5. Oooo! A challenge! I'll see what I can come up with! Love this post.

    Please share the Ed Emberley inspiration. And would you mind if I did a self-portrait similar to your idea? I think it's precious.

  13. This is a great idea! It was nice to reflect and take time to think about my path as a crafter. Looking forward to reading about other crafters' "things" as well.
