Bookmark trade

Here are pictures of my bookmark trade from Fiber Arts Trader. Mine I traded are left over fabric pieces from my Crazy quilt lady Quilt that Patti, Lynn and I made. They are great for bookmarks. I used a piece of decorative trim tape for the top tab and one has yarns with fabric beads.

Marble fabric

Here are the marble fabrics I did. I want to use them for water, ocean sea scapes

Tie dye

Here are my favorites the tie dye done on unbleached muslin. I don't want to cut them. Some are the perfect green/ tan colors I will use for sand on beach sceens and the Desert Storm quilt I am working on.

Fabric dye & Marbeling class

I finally got pictures to post of my fabric dye classes last weekend. What fun. I was coloring anything that came my way. I colored up 20 yds of fabric. I hated cutting it into fat quarters and 1/2 yds but had to do it. I did manage to get some 1 yd pieces. You will see fabric dyed using unbleached muslin which gives a creamy brown tone effect which is my favorite and I also did fabric using bleached muslin which gives a clear, crisp bright color effect. The marbeling was a different. Some of those pictures are here also. For the marbeling I want to get fabrics representing water, ocean looks.

To the Dogs

This quilt was made for charity. Eagles Wings Service dogs. It was chanced off and sold 450 tickets. All the fabric in the quilt is dog fabric and the dogs & dog paws, trees and houses are appliqued on. Metalic threads used as accents on the dogs highlights. Quilted with puppy and dog bone pattern.

Log cabin

This is my log cabin replica of my house but done in logs. I made 5 of these quilts Two I kept, One was laid over my grandmother to rest resembeling her cabin ( made one for myself of the cabin in Slate Run) and the other two were sold. Quilted in metalic threads.

Fabric Postcard exchanges

Here is some of the collection of fabric postcards that I have made over last year and this year. Red riding hood and wolf are printed out in black ink only right onto muslin. Also a fabric book cover with the rocks made from Tyvek, beads and fabric fish.
