BTW, my friend Kaite in Australia has taken up the needle challenge and is now knitting squares with yarn bits. Hers will be made into squares and then eventually into a blanket. Isn't that a cool idea? I love projects that use up leftovers of any type!!!! Do you have any ideas?
Remember my "Four Fabric Flower" swap on the Cloth Paper Studio, Yahoo group? I just received these lovelies in return from (clockwise) Meri, Janene, Rachel (x 2 as she was the hostess and went overboard once she got going) and Barbara. Thanks ladies!! I'm not sure what I'll be doing with them, but rest assured they will show up somewhere in my work. I'm playing with the idea of a fabric book and I think that Meri's lovely raw canvas beauty is a strong possibility for gracing the front of the book. It won't be soon, but we'll see.............
Unexpected mail from Kaite in Australia. Well she actually told me that she was sending something, but I didn't know that the little wooden birdhouse would be included. Roadside pickings (from her walks) for my bead journals, a knitted flower to yarn bomb my balcony railing and a surprise package that I'm not allowed to open until July 23rd (I wonder why??). Oh yes, missing from the photo are cards & brochures, plus a couple of numbers for future bead journals. Of course, I couldn't let you see those yet, could I?? BTW, the wooden spools were from a recent yard sale purchase. I thought it was a nice way to show off the little house. Now I wonder what type of birds would live in a collaged house of stamps?
