"Hats and Goggles....." Steampunk Art

Always dreamed of an Artshow of my own (with Neal).

Even having an open night !

This is why i have not been showing many of my creations this year (There are heaps to show you 

real soon !)

Lucy the pink TEDDY

In October 2015 I wove fabric to make 

a Teddy Bear HERE

Here is the newest teddy bear made 

for Louise's Birthday 

It's PINK.
Wove the fabric on the Rigid heddle
loom and then traced pattern on  fabric and 
sewed along the traced lines before cutting out pieces
Then i sewed all mu parts together to build my teddybear

Here it is with the left over weaving

And the two together before Lucy went to 

her new home 

Happy birthday Louise

Too all my weaving friends out there don't be afraid to 

cut your weaving after you have woven it

LOOK What happened to my Black croc's

OK I only wear crocs these days and tomorrow 

I need to be in costume again and crocs dont

suit the costume I got paint and painted them with 

metallic colours and Neal then got some of my charms 

and added to the band .

 Off to steam fest tomorrow

LIght House Regional Arts Tasmania

Four years ago we moved to Tasmania

This past Saturday was our first week doing 

our turn at selling Raffle tickets in the 

Brisbane Mall Launceston.

GeorgeTown Steampunk Festival will be 

selling the tickets all the way up to 

noon on the 24th June 2017.

The prize is a Steampunked Harley Davison

 So the past 4 months I have been working on Neal's vest 

and my costume. 

Here is it soo far  (mine still needs things added to it 

up until the steampunk tasmania festival , but least it is now 

wearable in the mean time.)

Then since we were out in public in costume anyways

(those that know me would be surprised I dressed like this in public!)

On the way out of Launceston we went and took photos 

at steampunky looking things 

OH and closer look at the embroidery so far

(if some had of told me 4 years ago that i would move to 

Tasmania and be dressing up like this and going out in

public I would have told them that they were crazy)
