Fabric, Fibre and Lace Art

So happy that you are here visiting today!

♥♥♥s to all! 

Just recently I purchased some card stock

(which I rarely use) called "Timeless Memories"

and I thought it would make just the

right background for some new

art pieces I was wanting

to create.

 

 

I pulled out my felting machine and with some dyed felt

as a base I added several layers of bamboo cotton,

dyed scrim, lace fabric, sari ribbon, dyed

mohair along with some seam binding to create,

to the card stock which I stamped,

this little art piece

 and

then

I created another one using a sweet ballerina image

 

 

This one has some lovely raw soy silk felted 

over some sari ribbon.

 

 

These are available in my Etsy shop 
*** Both cards now sold***
where I do have some fabric and lace kits also for anyone
needing these to create their Fabric Lace Book/Journal
in my upcoming class over at
 http://www.creativeworkshops.typepad.com/

I will be adding more of these kits hopefully over the next few days.

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.
