Thank you Karen!! Such a hip piece.

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 4, 2011 at 10:23pm: Thank you for starting this group. I am not into sooooo much into it as far as SEWing is concerned (once upon a time had a sewing machine, but no longer), however I do want to incorporate fabrics and yarns, laces and fiber materials in my collages...maybe get away from the harsh sandpaper ?..or not. Using "soft" in contrast with "harsh" might work, too.

Lisa Iverson has a great mail art project with "Textile", so I already sent off a yarn-fabric-bits collage there. But can't say that I work with those materials, and it would be good to see what's happening!

Comment by Jen Staggs on January 4, 2011 at 10:00pm: OOOhh- Lisa and I have been wanting to start this group for a while- glad you did it!! I'm so (sew) in!

Comment by Laurence Roberts on January 4, 2011 at 9:55pm: It is more of an aspiration with me ! I really want to incorporate fabric, threads and stuff like that into my work.

Great idea starting this.

all the best
