Make, Mend, and Grow with Diana

I have always been a maker. Over the years, I have dabbled in drawing, painting, spinning, weaving, mending, foraging, gardening, basketry, paper making, food preservation, and more. One art degree and several decades later, I am sharing my accumulated knowledge and my experiments with new methods and mediums.

Follow along with my journey and learn to make new things, mend beloved items, and grow or forage new foods.

I just finished my latest upcycled quilt! I made it out if fabric samples, a curtain, and a sheet. The batting in the middle is the only part I didn't reuse. Well, and the thread.

Blocking a wool and acrylic knitted shawl. I am pleased with how it turned out! Fun with knitting looms.

Epic salad post! Pink radicchio, red speckled radicchio, yellow bell peppers, gold grape tomatoes, lime-pickled onions, and salad shrimp.

Yes, the shrimp are a little freezer burned. I am eating them anyway. :)
