Recently, I have been creating objects of comfort from other objects of comfort. Like below, creating tea bags out of old clothes that were comforting to me.

I displayed them for my critique in a teacup to give the tea bags context.

Another item of comfort I am making is a quilt made from old t-shirts.

It’s currently only just tac-ed together, but the aim is for it to be a hand stitched mini quilt completed by Christmas. These objects will eventually put into my self-portrait book on comfort (which is vol 3 of the 5 I aim to create by Christmas.)
