Rude Dog

I made some new badges last night. These are a combination of the puffy badges I made a while back with screenprints and my normal stitched badges. I have been trying a few different ideas for badges with some mixed results. The ladies are going well, but these have a nice 3D quality to them. The bottom badge was meant to be a octopus, but it looks more like a cloud and jellyfish combined.







I have been meaning to post a picture of this for a while, it is a sketchbook my sister got me from India. The paper inside is handmade and very soft and the front is covered in all the jewels and sequins it can handle.

Your new badges are cute. I can see Japanese girls loving those! Especially the octopus.

What a great book. Only someone really generous and with excellent taste would give such a gift.

As a bibliophile, I must say, that's a great book. Such a tactile object.

And cute badges! I love felt badges and was in the middle of making one off my own patten and I misplaced it and grr. :)
