I’m working on lots of new paper mache and thinking about little bits of paper I’ve found and saved.
I’m also working on a small gray owl. My plan was to make him entirely gray but he won’t have it.

I’ve added lots of new things to the shop including paper mache sailboat #7.
Motiveless malignity.
And something else: Over the summer I took Susan Sato’s “One Patch Scrap Quilt” class at Fiber Notion here in Park Slope. The class was great, I had zero experience with traditional quilting techniques and I learned a ton, stuff that I use in my other hand sewing too. The class is being offered again beginning November 4th. You can contact Kat at Fiber Notion for more info.
update 10/15:
I’ll post a couple more progress photos here later today.
Thanks for giving Chillingworth such a warm reception! I’m working on a new indigo owl now for next week’s shop update. The Japanese scraps are courtesey of Stephen Szczepanek. This owl is of particularly robust figure.
Some other work in progress:
And a couple things for the new “small things” section of the shop. A set of tiny office supplies in matchboxes and a pensive little cherub. I got the cherub an the Park slope Flea market – it washed up on Plum Beach in Brooklyn.
This truly glorious antique underskirt is destroyed in the skirt sense, it’s so fragile I’m surprised I was able to hang it for the photo, but it will make a wonderful foamy, boiling sea for a paper mache ship. Bird news: the daily bird is back for one week. I’ll post one little bird for sale in the shop Monday through Friday, the time will vary. I’ll post a link here in the side bar each day when it’s ready and also on twitter. *little clarification – I’ll post a link here in the sidebar but will not be emailing subscribers for each daily bird *
This is Monday’s bird matilde in a pine tree in Prospect Park. |
