Jessica Grimm said… Moin Heike,
herzlichen Dank für deine lieben Worte. Die Steine werden schon seit einige Wochen von vielen Mitglieder hier gestickt. Wenn du unter die Gruppe Hand Embroidery suchst nach der Diskussion "Who dares to rush into a pebble adventure" findest du nicht nur viele Vorbilder, aber auch wie man so ein Stein macht.
Schönen Tag, Jessica

Wishes and stitches

Shirley said… It would be my pleasure to have you as a friend Heike. welcome to SF you will enjoy being a part of this wonderful community. No I dont live in the "centre" I live in south east queensland, but we have travelled round Australia in our caravan. I have been to the northern territory a few times and to West Australia twice, and have painted the gorges. I just love the colours of the inland.

Hi Heike,
I just found you by looking at members and where they are from. Having visited Germany, I found it most intriguing to correspond and see what you are doing.
I loved it there. At the moment I am making hearts in mixed media art.
I don't have any skills as far as silk ribbon embroidery but would love to learn.
I love fiber arts as of the last year in my art walk!
I love your quilt wall hanging you did.. logs of work I see..
Hugs, Darlene
