detailed step-by-step instructions for a painting that uses just two
pigments. From there you will learn to mix three, four, and even five
pigments to create increasingly complex compositions. There is lengthy
discussion about choosing specific pigments for each of the four
projects so you can do the projects more than once and get different
effects depending upon the colors you start with. If you love colors,

I enlarged one of <a href="https://instagram.com/marty_kenney?igshid=1ta5xmnmal5jp">Marty Kenney</a>’s doodles of a seahorse to make a stencil and then hand stitched this appliqué. This became the sleeve of a cotton t-shirt.<br />

I had originally embroidered the seahorse to a front panel. No matter how I looked at it, the placement was unflattering. So the piece sat unfinished for eight months until I decided to move the embroidery to the sleeve. That’s why it has extra seams.<br />
<br />
I designed the rest of the shirt to go with the seahorse. I wanted the seahorse to be the focus, the most detailed part, with the rest of the shirt simple, but not plain. After much thought and deliberation, I decided to add a trim to the rest of the t-shirt. Here you can seek all of the trim on the front, back, and second sleeve. A little appliqué like this is not only decorative, but also serves a purpose. It keeps the edge from rolling too much. I learned these sewing techniques from the books of Alabama Chanin.<br />

Notice the parallel whip stitch where the sleeve connects to the bodice. I use whip stitch for the sewing and top stitching on that seam to make it stretchy. It’s a lot more comfortable for me when it’s stretchy there.<br />

I finished sewing a T-shirt for my sweetie for his holiday present. It’s hard to buy him gifts, but he always wears the T-shirts I make him. This shirt is entirely hand stitched in cotton jersey, using techniques I learned from the books by Alabama Chanin.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
My sweetie like AV equipment and electronics. So I made this stencil just for him. I appliquéd the design with backstitch.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here, I used my original binding technique with a jersey noodle. This is the second shirt I’ve made with this edge treatment, and I really like it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgnSls_HJ1ygiMQ5FSscDXtnIbclOMx-Y26TMaejI5tFaxom0Tz8UAZcdcZhJMI0EZ_vxlLtXiQKaFJuMCTae1bdtsWpF5aLZCk2yT3F_2EKy8Lf8EEFww-7WNOpAXBbMTz62wdSQvutv/s1600/4CC80A36-1D2B-43BE-8273-B2BFA60BA87E.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgnSls_HJ1ygiMQ5FSscDXtnIbclOMx-Y26TMaejI5tFaxom0Tz8UAZcdcZhJMI0EZ_vxlLtXiQKaFJuMCTae1bdtsWpF5aLZCk2yT3F_2EKy8Lf8EEFww-7WNOpAXBbMTz62wdSQvutv/s320/4CC80A36-1D2B-43BE-8273-B2BFA60BA87E.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I cut the strips of cotton jersey 1.25” wide before stretching them into noodles. Then I appliquéd the noodle to the edges in two passes as I show in the drawings here.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3zio4sPy5M3rtroAnKU4ne-zfRgQdxwUC_6Y7AV_Qt5lzzq5jDCYmzzRBWmL6pvZvA_l6qJeQ10PEIrggqiulWFYDbqMWOc8piKHtmjywtY5vtjbu86QQJOFBXrLD4fnn4rpiudCFJ_lX/s1600/A0349A0E-8899-48D7-8577-5B64826D4370.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="882" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3zio4sPy5M3rtroAnKU4ne-zfRgQdxwUC_6Y7AV_Qt5lzzq5jDCYmzzRBWmL6pvZvA_l6qJeQ10PEIrggqiulWFYDbqMWOc8piKHtmjywtY5vtjbu86QQJOFBXrLD4fnn4rpiudCFJ_lX/s320/A0349A0E-8899-48D7-8577-5B64826D4370.jpeg" width="294" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
It’s easy to do this binding on the neckline because you don’t have to ease it like you do with Alabama Chanin’s folded binding, which I find to be a particularly difficult task to do on curved necklines. The fold-over step with the noodle automatically makes the noodle shorter than the finished neckline, making it just the right tightness. Here you can see the fold-over step half done.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8fChXpGaZLeKHDcOOU5oQ3eBkbUyzdWh0fRY-o-Uq5Cd5JuPNbPPIRuMc26BJ63KglKk93GJzrX9HaCnpMxzMo114cXVjN0ctkDxYIHo1oPvyB2uqDoMrqTfJLBZo9hSBTL7iYvAb4UC4/s1600/C19FA808-3FC2-413A-827E-B7B10074498B.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8fChXpGaZLeKHDcOOU5oQ3eBkbUyzdWh0fRY-o-Uq5Cd5JuPNbPPIRuMc26BJ63KglKk93GJzrX9HaCnpMxzMo114cXVjN0ctkDxYIHo1oPvyB2uqDoMrqTfJLBZo9hSBTL7iYvAb4UC4/s320/C19FA808-3FC2-413A-827E-B7B10074498B.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
So the finished neckline is taught and stretchy. Next time, on the sleeve ends, I’ll ease the noodle a little (with a shorter noodle) because I think it belled a little, and a little taper there at the ends of the sleeves would have been better and could have been solved with some easing.</div>

Sure, you can only see one cat here, but there are more cats on the dark side of the planet. The scale in the right should give you a sense of how big everything is. </span></div>

I did something different with the colors on this one. I had a cognitive shift in how layering colors works. I layered colors on the opposite sides of the color wheel, and I’m telling you, it was pretty dicey there for a while because when you mix pink and green, you get brown. Half way through the coloring, I thought it was almost certainly past the point of no return, a total color failure, At that moment, I took my Kepler dog for a walk to get away from it for a while. When I returned to this drawing, I decided it was salvageable. In the end, I got it right where I hoped it would be when I decided that mixing pink and green was a good idea. </div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
In Doodle No. 24 Six Holes, I asked, “How many holes are too many?” The answer I was given was infinitely many. So then I spent the next several days trying to figure out how to draw infinitely many holes. The answer lied in the Poincare model of hyperbolic space. Here, I present “Too Many Holes.”</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The young cashier at the paper store convinced me that I really needed to open an Instagram account. And so I did. I’m planning to use it to share my artwork. So, now you can follow me there, if that’s you’re thing. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gwenbeads/">https://www.instagram.com/gwenbeads/</a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">The Devil’s Staircase (AKA, the Cantor Function) is a weird fractal function that I studied in graduate school. What I seem to remember the most about it is how to draw it. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Also, I designed this piece specifically to be printed on shirts, stickers, mugs, etc., which you can find here. <a href="http://www.gwenbeads.threadless.com/">Www.gwenbeads.threadless.com</a> I just ordered a shirt for myself in blue. It’s quite nice for twenty bucks. Sadly, the ladies fitted large is too big for me. So I have it to my sweetie. </span><br />
