Katherine,
This is a great idea.
I LOVE your choice of colors.
This is really neat, I love it!! Did you make the web-like out of machine threading?
hi, I love this piece.
What is paper clay ? I've never heard of it.
This is Beautiful. Did you sew, glue or felt the fibers?

- About Me:
- 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.
I like to take unwanted items, paint, embellish and update to make them “wanted” items. I get kicks from reinventing from a craft perspective. I love challenges and once I get bored with a certain craft project, I start working on a different type.

I am a current board member of the Fiber Artists Group of San Antonio www.fiberartistsofsanantonio.org whom I represent as Publicity Chairperson. I am also a member of the San Antonio Visual Arts Groups among several online groups; local and Globally.
I sell my handmade products thru a few boutiques in San Antonio and throughout Texas. Please visit my blog for more information.

- 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!
