Thanks Marisa,
I enjoyed looking at your jewelry when you posted the other day. You are
doing some really beautiful work!

Hi Lisa,
Your fibre art work is wonderful! I so enjoyed looking at all the
beautiful and complex surfaces. They really spoke to me.

Okay Becki,
You asked for it, here it is, the latest set I made. The pink beads are
those cute tab beads that Marjean sells in her ebay shop.

I haven't posted here in ages and no one prolly knows who I am except
for
Sooz, maybe.
I also have a box there that has beadwork on it. It was accepted in the
Fine
Arts division of the Iowa State Fair this year. Cool beans to me because
it
did not fit in the quilting division. I didn't win a ribbon, but it felt
really great to be jurried in.

A (sort of) OT note, I got to teach at the John Campbell folk school in
North Carolina this summer. http://www.folkschool.org/ My good friend
Martha
Green was teaching crazy quilting, and since her class was full, she was
able to hire me as an assistant. I taught some simple bead
embellishment,
and helped Martha by being her 'ears' since she is nearly deaf.

It was just heavenly there. Every morning I watched the sun rise over
the
Smokey Mountains as I sat on our front porch in a hand made rocking
chair.
This link shows the house I stayed in. It is the picture in the very
upper
left corner http://www.folkschool.org/lodging.html Other than a scarry
incident with a sneaky snake, it was wonderful. The food was to die for,
and
the students eager and willing to try new things. Wish we were going
back
next year too. But alas, Martha isn't going back til 2008. I *HOPE* the
class is full again so I can go too!

Lisa -- I have to say it again - I am so enthralled with your fabric
pieces, especially all the detail pictures of the box. Would it be OK
with you if I make one of those pictures my screensaver? It makes me
want to create. It makes me want to own that box!!!

Becki

I didn't even see the box -- I was blinded by the other stuff -- WOW,
KLUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!

Why don't you just bead the center block the way it tells you it wants
to be beaded? Because I think the center design is strong and perfect
with the rest of it.

Splort ! :-o
Really? I'm not in love with it yet. I keep adding things, hoping it will
grow on me. I don't want to give up on it though. I've already put many
treasures that the students shared or swapped with me from the Folk School.

It definitely needs more beadwork. And I may do something totally different
with the center block. Ideas range from a poem stitched on fabric to some
sort of floral wreath in beads/fabric/ribbons........well, you get the idea.
It will tell me what it needs when the time comes.

Sure Becki, go right ahead! I'm honored. I'm happy that you find it
inspirational. :-)

Lol.......I'm with you. **I** want to own the box too, but like I said
earlier, it goes up for an "invitation only" (read rich people with
money)charity auction. It will be okay though. When my eldest son was
young, he was a handfull and a half, and we used their services many times.
Maybe the money raised will help another family in need like we were back
then.
