I love to use old jewelry pieces, buttons, charms, beads, lace. I love to do crazy quilting. I especially love to use silk ribbon and ribbon floss. I do not know how to post pictures. A great web site for crazy quilting is Evening Star Designs, check it out!!

I don't have pics, but I did a snowman wallhanging - I used little seedpearls that I handsewed onto the back ground fabric (snowfall based fabric) to look like highlites in that snow. It served as the "quilting" and ended up looking so good. I'm not a great quilter, but that one piece made me look like I was!!

I am posting these photos for Lynnie. She inspires me so much with her embellishments.

Lynnie made this for a recent swap. Her leaf is so creative.
