Mardi Gra Violin

This little violin is ready for the Fiddler's silent auction. What would you bid?

Aztec Sun

Used a image from the lining and needle felted it on the front of the purse.

Starry Night

Van Gosh's Starry Night is one of my favorites.

Button.. button..

... how do you know if you have the right button?

Happy Valentine's Day

... a thirty year collection of Valentine boxes and a very sweet husband to go with them.

This completed purse is....

... going with me to the reception at the Two Twelve Art Center this Friday.

another purse in progress...

... I have maybe ten purses unfinished. I trying to use the time I have, while on medical, for knee replacement surgery to complete my many projects.

But, I get side tracked, as I'm beginning to feel better and don't have to sit as much.

Textured purse

.... and this one needs a button.

Fall purse with handles...

... but it still needs a button or snap...

and I haven't found what works yet.

Little Fiddle

A new challange. The Saline Fiddlers, distribute their broken instruments to local artists. To do something artisy with them, so they can be auctioned, to raise money for the fiddlers group. Last year, we're told they raised enough money to travel to Germany.

Fall Purse... nearly finished

I've posted a picture of both sides.

Fall Purse... it's nearly finihed

... I need to finish hand sewing the lining inside and add the handles.
