Tried my hand with the sewing machine (yeah, I know… lol) and so far I’ve been able to do a few things I can share with you. I’ve also joined two fabric art groups that exchange fabric postcards through the mail.. hoping to get past the “I think I can” stage… it’s great fun! I’m also working on a set of “captured fairy” bottles for an upcoming craft fair to benefit my woman’s group. If you’d like to trade fabric art with me (4×4 or 5×5 inch, mixed media) I’d love to hear from you… just click “contact” button and send a note. Cheers and happy altered art-ing  :)

(That green sleeve you see there is called a coffee cozy, it’s used as a sleeve for Starbucks coffee cups instead of the usual paper ones. Less for the landfills and much cuter, too)
