Winter Gear

over the course of a year i think of garments that would make life a little more comfortable.  the past two years winter gear has been the focus, especially with outdoor year round cycling.  This is the outer layer of a hood made from recycled plastic bags, thread, electrical tape, and two zippers that i've been carrying with me since i can't even remember. it's a work in progress, and currently a more sculptural than functional piece, but i plan on fixing that the next day my lovely guinea pig who i am making it for has a day off.

Orthodox Jewish Wedding

this is the second wedding i've attempted to document, and a friend asked me to put some images up on the blog. It was an extremely lively and interesting experience, difficult to capture in an image. here are a few caught moments.

Stamp Project Continued

6 samples of abandoned homes in the Central West End of St. Louis

some were large mansion now hollowed out, others small, single family homes missing roofs and windows.

Woven Rug

last year an old friend passed away. his son gave me a garbage bag full of old clothing and slowly but surely i have been turning the materials into new and functional objects.

This is a woven rug.

This is the Baby Surprise Jacket- surprise because when you are finished knitting it it looks like a very strange little object

but after you sew 2 seems together you have a wonderful little garment!
