i've been visiting your blog on and off and find your work very exciting.
best,

Thanks for checking out my work. As for your question about my work, the piece you inquired about being a rug is wall art. It is mounted on an acrylic panel. It's constructed in a technique that I call "crinkle quilting". I wrinkle the fabric and then confine them in place with hand quilting. The thread fringe around the outside edge is the end and beginning of each length of floss I stitched across the surface. My process is documented on my weblog, http://nelliedurand.blogspot.com/, under the label "Crinkle Quilts".
Your invitation worked and I'm going to add you too!
have a nice Sunday. We have our first spring day with lots of sun!

I'm just working out the interface to this place. I have contributed a couple of articles to Cloth, Paper, and Scissors is that what you mean.
Yes I am Canadian, living in UK for last 18 years (how did that happen?)
I'm not using an embellisher. Don't have one. I think I prefer wet felting anyway. It's quite amazing the number of woven fabrics that will embed! I have only tried one fabric so far that refused to cooperate.
