In the last couple of days I have received some fabulous reading material - firstly, I bought Beate Knappe's "Embellisher Workshop" and then the first issue of the Fibre & Stitch Zine was launched yesterday.
I have only read bits so far but both are really interesting and informative. The Zine, in particular, is a huge 62 pages and has a fantastic array of projects and technique articles and I am sure it will be a great success. If you haven't subscribed yet and you are even remotely interested in fibre/textile art and surface design/embellishment I am sure you would love it. It is really excellent value! I only dabble but I am so inspired by it I want to stay home and play!
Congratulations to Lynda Monk, Sue Bleiweiss, Terri Stegmiller, Carol McFee & Margaret Roberts on your first issue - it must have been a LOT of work! And now we'll all be dying for the second issue to come out!
Last night at Annie's I concentrated on beading my embellisher postcards which I had hoped to finish on the weekend. Apologies to my fellow traders for those - I am running late! So in the absence of anything new and finished to include here, I have included a scan of a canvas piece I did a while back - it is one of my favourites as it incorporates so many of my loves - canvas, napkins, stamping, paints etc.

Hi Debbi,
I agree with you on fibre and and stitch. It is a treath. I love you're canvas piece!!!
Just love your new pieces, and have just subscribed to fibre and stitch. Maybe they can help me with those edges on postcards, as I do need to learn how!!!!
