Winter Wearbles
When I'm stuck inside and needing inspiration, my default setting is to make wearables. Needless to say, it has been VERY cold in Montreal, and it's been a rough winter for me, so the majority of what I've been making has been stuff to wear.

I've also been getting back into dying recently. This is a large piece I've shiboried about 5 times, and then have started painting on with copper fabric paint, continuing the beetle motifs I've been working with. I don't know what it will turn into, but I'm liking it so far.

The very first thing I decided to make this year was a winter jacket. I figured if I was to survive another Canadian winter, I at least want to look good while doing it.

I've also been getting very into accessories, like these leather bracers, arm warmers, leather necklace, stone pendants, rings and earrings.
