Framing Time

I'm in the final steps of getting things framed for our show this coming week.  It snuck up so quickly!  Here are some of my fabric creations for this year.   I'm framing most of them in small floating or matted frames and am really happy with the way they look.  Most of these pieces are experiments with the traditional crazy quilt form.



A few of my more textural pieces like this are going in deeper, shadow box frames:

Paula's New Felted Treasures

This weekend, I made several felted items for our PAC Open Doors Show and Sale. The felted guardian angels dangle and can be hung anywhere to add color and peace.


The felted pin cushions add pizazz to any sewer's work space.

Hand felted bags by Tory












I'm bringing all the bags to the "Open Doors" show. I have others that are not pictured. They have been fun to make because each one is unique.

Lace Desk Accessories by Lenall Siebenaler



This summer, I hosted an art sleep-over for my 12 year old nephew, Matthias, his mother, Lisa, and his good friend, Ryan. Both boys are very artistic and I had several projects planned. We managed to cram several of them into the day and 1/2 art-a-thon. And we had a blast!
One of them was working on my desk accessory line. They helped me to prototype the final look. I've been "decorating" composition books and calendars for the past 6 years. I love carrying these distinctive books with me. Each year, they've changed a bit. This year they changed alot. I think this years' line is my best one yet. I hope you like them as much as I do! Both are $8.00 each. I have also done some cards that are very soft and lacy using the same technique!

Thanks!

Lenall
