- What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
- texture, color, drape, sheen, maleability during construction, burn/melt results, visual texture, process, emotions while stitching (does it feel good?)... gosh, i could go on!
- Where did you learn your textle skills?
- remember those cards with holes and shoe strings? i got a couple for christmas as a very young girl. i recall lacing them over and over again, and when i was finally bored, i knew i was ready for *real* sewing. i can still remember that exact moment when the light went on and i was hooked. my mom got me started; mostly i'm self-taught.
- Anything else you want to say to introduce yourself to the group??
- you can take the girl out of san francisco, but you can never take san francisco out of the girl!

Yes, I do have my book and I've been reading it off and on. I haven't had a chance to try any of the techniques, though, because I've been busy making ornaments, ATCs and a postcard for swaps I'm participating in here on stitchinfingers.
Still, I am hoping to find the time soon - probably after Christmas - to really sit down and try some of the great techniques in that book. I know basically nothing about working with ribbon, so it will be good experience for me, I'm sure.
On the work issue, I agree, what goes around comes around! :)
I hope your holiday shows go well for you. I'd love to see what all you do. If you happen to take photos maybe you can post some more?
Take care and Happy Holidays!

I just ordered the book you recommended. I'm sure a tutorial would be really appreciated here and fun for you to do!
Thanks!
Dakotah
Would you consider sharing your technique for making ribbon flowers? They are gorgeous and are very unique. I'd love to learn how you do it if you're willing to share.

Thanks for your kind words about my totebags. I don't actively market them, but occasionally someone will ask to buy one, and usually I will sell it....
Happy Stitching,
Allie
Last year I attended the Crazy Quilt Conference in Omaha, Nebraska. Most of her embellishments came from the conference. The hair was from the fiber exchange, the leaves, charms and beads were gifts from my conference roomies. The vine was also purchased there.
I'm glad you like her.
