New Project--Romantic Wrist Cuff

Seem to have had writer's block lately, so I have been filling in with creative projects.  The book will have to wait!  (Re-writes in progress.)  I needed some new items for my Etsy shops anyway, so here is one that I just completed and just listed!   A romantic wrist cuff.

I could use a young model!!  This cuff looks awful on my wrist--for picture that is!

 . . .ugh!

Even tho' I can't wear this one, I love making them!  I love the creativity!  And, just so you know, I do wear wrist cuffs.  I like a more simply styled cuff, and often wear one like this patchwork quilted one. It inspires my quilting work and reminds others of what I do!

Age shouldn't be a factor to pull them off, if you like them!   

Confidence and style is all that is needed!

Ever try wearing one?

Abigail Jayne Art Re-opening!

After a long pause . . . . . . . . . . . .   :)  

Abigail Jayne Art is reopening on Etsy!  

I'm excited about offering my textile art and wrist cuffs again!  Also working on several new projects that I will be sharing here in the blog in the near future.   It's been a long while since I have done this type of creating, since I was busy writing my first novel.  (More about my book in my other blog when it is available.)

Textile Tuesday! New Cuff!

Sat down the other day and made a new cuff.  My youngest daughter showed up that afternoon and she commented, later in the day, on how fast I was progressing on the cuff since I was working all the time I was visiting! I finished it in one day!

When she came over, I was doing the embroidery work with stitching and french knots:

A little "unclear" about my finished product, but I kept working . . . adding yo-yos for a Spring look:

Also, pearl buttons, and sequins for the finish:

Reminds me of a sun shiny Spring day! I just listed it here! Wonder if I should make another one??!!

Textile Art - New items

I recently created some new items for my Abigail Jayne Art shop.  I love working with textiles, trims and buttons, so this wrist cuff was a natural thing for me to do:

Great addition to that black outfit in your closet!  Listing

I also love hand embroidery and flowers!  I embroider while relaxing in front of the TV in the evenings, so this is the latest result of my creativity.  It is available in my shop.

Cosmos are some of my favorite bedding flowers!  Listing

And this new item is also newly listed in the Abigail Jayne Art Shop.

Like my model?  Listing

I carry kits for these necklaces in my Supply Shop, and I am sure that someone you know could probably do an awesome job of creating with one of my basic kits.  Add feathers, beads, trims, stitches, who knows what . . .????!!!!

What are you creating today?
