This is really fun!
Thank you for stepping up for the group Lisa.
Lorna, the inspiration came from American Indian basket weaving design from Vancouver Island British Columbia. I can't specify which tribe.
This is FAB where did the inspiration come from ?
Oh oh, I missed this. Sorry. Glad to hear it arrived.
Profile Information
- What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
- Dying, hand embroidery, garment construction, stuffies, ethnic, felting, quilting, contemporary surface embellishment, applique, bags, and other stuff I have yet to discover. This could actually be a much longer list, LOL.
I do not collect cute, girly, religious or political.
I do collect coyotes; and prefer stylized over realistic--ie one's own design. Realistic is good too as long as it is not a pre-printed, commercial fabric image. I like open theme work also as it gives the artist a chance to indulge his/her preferences and share his/her personal style.
- Where did you learn your textle skills?
- NWUSA, crafty women around me as I was growing up; research motivated by interest and practice, practice, practice.

- Morning
I just commented in the post card thread to say I have received your card. I posted on the swap thread when it arrived. It is beautiful. My son loved it, I had to wait in a queue to get a look at it when it first arrived. So sorry you didn't see the message when it appeared

- Love the orange flower! As you can see from my Tropical colors pillow I love florals. As to your question, I do dye a lot of my own fabrics but this pillow also includes batiks I bought.

- I think this is one of the few places where I can trade textile pieces. I am very interested in setting up trades with you guys. Let me get a few things out of the way and I will contact you to set something up. I am finishing two projects right now--but I often multi-task and work on more than one thing at a time.

Gina E. said… - Hi TheeCoyote,
Just came over from the ATC group to visit, and am bowled over by your stitching!!! I notice you've told someone here that you are very busy. When you have caught up with yourself, would you consider joining one of the Fabric Postcard Group swaps? I think we'd be fighting over who would be your exchange partner - LOL!

- The advantage of drawing plants over animals is that plants don't move. They can be more intricate with all the patterns and layers (in space), but I really enjoy drawing the curves and arcs and different shapes of the leaves.
I haven't given up on the blog. I just have too much going on at once and have been procrastinating in giving it the attention it needs. Once the ball gets rolling it will be easier to keep it up.
Margaret, we not only share a first name, but also an interest in ethnic textiles. I find them gloriously inspiring. Delete Comment

Margaret Ramsay said… - Just had a look at your blog - love your plant drawings . As a botanist myself, I both admire and appreciate the difficulties of botanical illustration , having had a go and deciding that scribbly landscapes and abstracts are where my painting skills are better used!
I've found blogging a powerful tool to log what I'm doing and to get feedback from friends made around the world. Do give it another whirl- I've found the more you put in, the more you get out.
Thanks for choosing me as a friend!
