Another new piece of jewelry

 Just finished this piece.  Again I used hand dyed strips of tee shirt fabric and then adorned it with some glittsy threads.

New Piece

 I'm still working on new ideas for jewelry.
This is made of strips of handdyed tee shirt fabric.
I felt it needed a little glitz to glued on some crystals.

NEW FABRIC JEWELRY PIECES


As some of you know, I have been playing with the possibilities of Fiber  Jewelry.
The first piece is made using a scrap of Batik fabric, backed with black felt and ribbon for a tie.

The second piece is made from strips of felt with rinestones attached.  Very fun to do, and will wear one to Quilting Guild meeting tonight and see what kind of a reaction I get.

Spring Has arrived in Kentucky!

 Just thought I'd share the fact that we got 3" of snow last night.  Beautiful, but we are suppose to get to 60 degrees this Sunday.

JUST PLAYING

 I'm just playing on Scribbles to find patterns that can easily be replicated into quilting patterns.  This is the second attempt.  So, much fun and it is continuous.

YOGA CLASS

I just wanted to let everybody know that there will be no Yoga class this morning.  Sorry, but I took a flu shot yesterday, and can not reach overhead, plus running a bit of a fever.    Hope to see you on Thursday as usual.

Mother's Love


I have finally decided that it has come a time in my life when I need to downscale.  We are going to put our three story house up for sale after the first of the year and buy something on one level. 

To be able to do this I need to begin to let loose of some of my quilts.  So, I have decided that once a week I will list a quilt, give discriptions, background, size and price. 

This quilt is named Mother's Love.  It was made in 2010 and is number three of a series of house quilts I made expressly for a solo show that was held at the main library during the World Equestrian Games in 2010, held in Lexington, Ky.

It is 47" wide and 42 1/2" long.  I am quite well known for the Stained Glass Technique which is the main technique I work in and have taught a class on it for a number of years as well as an Internet class. 
It showed at several major quilt shows. 
The price is $l,800.00
