Holiday Cards

This year I decided to quilt my cards. I found fun
fabrics and sewed strips together. Then added
batting and quilted with gold metallic threads.
Topping it off with a tiny gold sequin.
Then I glued my tree onto glossy card stock.
The insides are not finished yet.
I may put some in my shops. Those will be left blank
for your own personal message.
This was a fun project. Cheery and bright!
I have not been able to blog lately as DH has been under the 
weather with pneumonia again. Can't seem to rid himself of it.
This from a man who seldom gets ill. So be careful out there, it's going around.
I got the pneumonia shot but was told that it only covers strep pneumonia and there is more than one kind. Oh goody! But so far so good. Knock on wood. Can you hear me knocking on my head...LOL
I am also working on some journals and hope to show you soon.

The Sea Floor. A little fiber art...


 

The Sea Floor

I have been working on these fiber art quilts for some time now.
Finally finished and mounted on artist canvases. Ready to be hung
in a variety of ways.
They are filled with laces, silks, shells, dyed gauze, beading, stitching,
hand-made fiber beads, specialty ribbons, etc. Artist canvases are 4"X4"
and 1 1/4" thick.
I  like to photograph in natural light but today was dark and rainy so 
hanging the canvases was not to be. Living in a log home with only
a few plaster walls with good natural light is a challenge on days like this.
But I promised to post today so..... here they are. Enjoy!
