Workshop Fabric Wrapped Baskets

 During another Fabric Wrapped Basket Workshop, it was fun to see unique color combinations like this one Sherry created for her niece out of the remnants from the quilt she just made for her. 

 Ann's basket that was taking on an oriental feel was created using remnants given her from a friend.

Nice job girls!

My basket was again from my remnant bag. 

You would think the bag would be

depleted by now but not so.

Thank You Veterans!!

Fabric Wrapped Basket Workshop

What a delight to spend some time yesterday with some ladies in the Fabric Wrapped Basket Workshop I taught.  It's always fun to see how they take the technique you teach and make it their own.  This basket is what I created again from my remnant bin.  I need to finish it still.  Hopefully I'll have photos of the other creations from the day soon.

Earrings In The Mail!!

Something Beautiful is a wonderful site with mostly hand stamped unique silver jewelry creations ( very different looking than these earrings.)These earrings were created especially for me and include silver findings, speciality stones and fabric beads.  It's wonderful to have such a creative daughter who indulges my like of  balanced asymmetry and fabric.  Thanks Melanie!  She makes wonderful personalized Christmas, Wedding, Anniversary and Birthday gifts.

Purple Fabric Wrapped Bowl

 Since the 2 fabric wrapped bowls went into a gallery this week, I needed another one to use for my class sample for an upcoming workshop I am teaching.   So, into the remnant bag in search of purples.  Handles on this bowl are a first for me and quite simple.

I'm not sure you can go wrong with purple fabric! 

Butterfly Tins For Chrysalis

There's an amazing 3 day weekend for youth, Chrysalis and college aged folks, Journey that is an opportunity for them to renew or rekindle their commitment to Christ. During the weekend, they receive small token reminders of God's love called Agape. I collect Altoid tins (rectangular and circular) and cover them with butterfly fabric for Agape.

More Quilted Art Cards

These little tiny blocks are addictive and fun!

I'm taking these to a gallery today and

plan to make more for my Etsy Shop.
