Sharing Some Sewing Artistry

I don't need to tell you that Blogland is brimming with
some totally amazing fabric, textile and mixed media artists
and I just thought I'd share 
two of these today.
Firstly there is Yvonne (Yitte)
Look at this very clever little nature art dress



with so many beautiful layers supporting
this little nest and egg - layers of
pretty fabrics, doilies and netted laces.
 




embellished  by Yvonne on her sewing machine



are the words below!!!
 

and just read the words gracing this beautiful 
paper and lace tag -






and secondly there is Dorthe (Denlillelade)
who is a most masterful dollmaker.



Look at one of her latest driftwood angels
with her hair decorated so beautifully
with a string of buttons
adorned in layers of pretty lace and ribbon
and
embellished with starfish and flowers! 

 

  With the clearest blue eyes which spell "serenity" to me.


and these pure white soft and squishy pumpkins


buttoned and tagged with pretty french fabrics!









These amazing artworks are now hanging in my studio
and living on my dresser where
I can be reminded everyday of these lovely friends,
their incredible artistry
and moreover
their hearts of love and friendship
which I am ever grateful for.

  15. Is this blogland's own nature, dearest Suzy, that motivates us, mostly women, to support each other instead of negatively envying the other for her skills? Is it the land where we can be generous and kind?
    In your case it is so obvious! You have a kindred heart which spills all over your blog and touches other kindred hearts like sweet Dorthe's and Yitte's to react in such a most artistic and friendly manner. This presence of friendship, the wish you can feel in those beautiful presents for your wellbeing is so touching that it enlightens my soul, too!
    I am so happy to be part of such a community , all the more as the world around us seems to tumble in a struggle between good and evil. Visiting your blog today, my dear, gives me so much strength and an inside smile that I feel able to carry this spirit along myself, too!
    Hugs to you, my friend from the other side of the world! Good, to have you!
