Tarot Bags
Over the years I have made about 100 custom one-of-a-kind tarot bags for customers. As well as patchwork and silk ribbon embroidery, I also do fabric painting and wirework, hand-dyeing, and beading for the bags depending on the theme. They are fully lined with high-quality quilting cotton and have beautiful silky, rayon drawstrings.
You can see further examples of my tarot bags on both of my Gallery pages.

"French Country Pond"
- $42 CAD
Navy blue cotton velvet bag with appliquéd blue and yellow patchwork featuring flowers and stylized fish in water. Embroidered flowers and leaves of hand-dyed silk ribbon and silk floss. Interior is lined with a gorgeous blue and yellow print reminiscent of fabric from Provencal. The navy drawstring features wood, glass, and brass tube beads. This is an elegant bag with a deep, richly-coloured base and the sheen of sun and silk and bright summer days.

Journals
These handmade accordion books were created with fine art paper of archival quality and firm non-warping illustration board. See my Books/Journals page for more information.
The paper is ideal for dry media like pastel, coloured pencils, chalk, and charcoal. I have also used a dip pen and gold ink and gel medium for collage, and archival permanent markers on the paper with no problems.
The outer measurement of each journal is:
91 mm x 167 mm
(3 5/8 x 11/16 inches)
The inner pages measure:
76 mm x 153 mm
(3 x 6 inches)
The covers are collaged with antique Japanese woodcuts and various papers. The back covers are collaged over the navy blue satin ribbon, which is embedded in the board so that it won't pull out.
These would make a handsome set of four, or each would make a nice individual journal for a particular theme.
There are 14 pages plus 2 endpapers for a total of 16 pages. You can use both sides of the paper depending on the media you use.
I have found this a perfect size for a thematic treatment or a journal of a holiday. You can glue pockets to pages and keep ephemera from your holiday in them with some notes and salient artwork to pull the book together and make a charming memory.
