Fabric Collages

After I posted my fabric collage a while back someone commented that these can be very addicting. Well, they were right.  I've been making these at breakneck speeed -- and I am amazed that I am enjoying the hand stitching.  I find it very relaxing  Who knew!

  (An update on Pam -- have heard from her and she is fine.  Although tornadoes passed much, much

too close to her.)

Fabric Collage

When I said I wouldn't be continuing with Tag Tuesday anymore, I don't think I expressed how busy I have been the past few months.  The day job has kept me hopping

 -- which is a very good thing, I know.  

 I also took a trip to visit some of my cruising friends (Tim Holtz cruise, 2009).   Sarah, Lori and I met up at Pam's house.   I had a ball travelling to Pam's with Lori.   And Pam was a wonderful hostess to us all.

We did the things we all enjoy -- junking, eating, crafting!  A fun trip!

And I made something!   I've been wanting to try fabric collage but I don't have a sewing machine.  So I went with some hand stitching which looks a little crude, but all in all I like it.  I used  fabric from some upholstery sample books I had.  I then dyed that and all my lace in coffee.  The image was printed out on a cotton sheet suitable for my inkjet printer.
