Masks

Days pass by, and I feel like I have a lot to do, and my days are filled with various tasks. Meanwhile, this lady sleeps a lot. The other day, I left these masks (samples I had prepared for a workshop) on the chest next to her. When I woke up the next morning, she was already up, waiting for me to be shocked by this unexpected surprise.

 

Crocheting the first foot

 

  I will come back soon with more updates...

Sitting, finaly

Here she is on her place.

Armchair and more socks friends

Crocheting on and on, very slowly the armchair is getting a shape. I wonder if it wouldn't be more interesting to leave it like that, but well I am too curious so I keep on.
While my hands were hurt from the constant act of crocheting, new friends were created.

*And now some news:
Tomorrow the traveling group exhibition "Thirty Something" , I am taking part in, will be opened in Netherlands. If you happen to live at this part of the world you can see more details here

Crochet construction

It was long days of crocheting, till I got the construction of the armchair. Some parts I had to re-crochet few times till I realized how I should do it. At first I crocheted all the parts, sew them together and stuff afterwards. It turned out as a big mistake. I had to crochet all the four legs twice, since only when I stuffed them I noticed that the crochet hook I used was too large and the stuffing came out of the stitches.
After re crocheting the legs, suddenly the arms turned out to be too small, so I had to re crochet them too.
It all was a bit exhausting, and yet there is much more work to do till someone could use this armchair.

The crochet doll wasn't really bothered by it, she decided to give it a try as it is.

Couple of friends popped in, they didn't even notice the new furniture but were very curios to see what she is busy with.

As time passed by, and conversation went on and on, covering much of the issues were discussed in the studio lately, she had to give up the comfy padding.
