But I thinking how sore your fingers must have gotten doing DBS on all those sharp ended paperclips.<br />Your work in general is great :-) We sound like we have similar tastes - I'm a slightly pierced (lost most of them) and tatoo'ed ex-goth. Well, still goth. Sort of vintagey now, at 41. I dunno. I'm me.<br />I do 16th/17thC silk and goldwork, stumpwork and raised work - but all pretty traditional/true to historical. Your work is like a breath of fresh air!MeganHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14842743721181682681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6919109985746333081.post-82464589964905876822012-03-25T21:55:34.169+01:002012-03-25T21:55:34.169+01:00Oh Wow, this is stunning, and a fantastic job of c...Oh Wow, this is stunning, and a fantastic job of covering all those paperclips, that in itself would have take forever.

I used to breed these precious parrots and Sahara is the offspring of the pair I had. I would love to attempt a project like this! At first I thought the paperclips looked crocheted. And now I'm wondering if that would work too? I don't know, but I think a project like this is going on my need to try list!

Gorgeous work! My family breeds a variety of exotic birds and my favorite is the African Grey, they have so much personality. Any idea how many hours went into the stitching?
