Maybe....

I would imagine that 'life' has got in the way again for you. We will play it by ear......maybe that should be an Art Quilt topic.
While I am doing this lot of costuming I am going to factor in continuing with other things fibre....only problem is after a days work sewing I don't much feel like getting back into the studio and sewing for relaxation. Perhaps some hand sewing in the lounge is what I need.

Last email

I sent you an email this morning. Perhaps we could incorporate the subject with starting on this project again??

I agree!

Two weeks later I see strike while the irons hot so it is a bit cooler now.

Tonight the book will be my bedtime reading and tomorrow I will make a plan!

I actually have forgotton what is in the book though I recall doing the first drawing exercise!

Pisture is of my Cornucopia which i sent to Lyn. I wasn't going to do much but then thought I should do something at least 'my style.' We finished up in a direct swap as once again there were "I won't swap with LB" participants.

Strike While the Iron's Hot

Let's not put it off. Even if we only do a little it will be better than delaying it even more.

Art Quilt Workbook

Time we got started on this don't you think or shall we leave it until next year?
I don't mind either way.
My friend has left her embellisher here for a week so I will enjoy playing with that!

More postcards....

The other group I was in for this round of Postmark'd Art was Art Deco. I based mine on the lightshades in Unilever House in London. Looks simple but it took ages and ages to do them!

Not showing all 10 as thet are all similar just with a different placement of the colours. For the address side I used some vintage fabric (1970) which were based on Art Deco design.

Postcards

I have sent off the Recycled group for Postmark'art. My view of recycling was to use waste. I needle felted silk throwsters(the ultimate waste) onto samples (bad ones) from a dye workshop about 4 years ago. Then I began running out of throwsters so used some wool left over from a scrumbling class, silk tops from a silk paper making workshop, plus the actual silk paper made of sari silk. Then I discovered the base fabric was twisting so needle felted them to old felt my mother used when she was crafting about 20years ago! Next came pelmet vilene left over from a vessel making class and the cardboard address side was cut offs from exhibition labels.(First time I've used cardboard as I usually use fabric for the address side). I used last years Christmas stamps which I got at a reduced price!!
