- I enjoy all forms of crafty mediums. Currently, I'm learning to dye fabric (the proper way) and have fallen in love with fabric embellshing.

- Thanks for the reply, janice. I'm just now experimenting with all types of media. I'm wishing Santa for an Embellisher. I see so many GREAT works and am tempted into getting one. I think i'll start with a good used one.
Have a fantastic day all !!

- Thankyou for your comments on my work, an embellisher machine is basically a machine with several barbed needles that felts materials and fibers together, its great fun! In answer to your other question about "Dotty hearts" the acryllics are Galleria but the oil pastels are old and I can't remember the make!
