WHAT'S ON THE WORK TALBE...

 With crumple of paper and spill of button...
 With pile of lace and stain of stitches...
  A new work is begun...
I am so excited to have begun work on my new "Heritage" collection!  I have brainstormed and sketched ideas, culled through supplies, and even taken on learning something new to make this artful vision a reality.  I have three pieces in mind to begin the collection and it may expand should time allow.
This collection will be based on the thought of heritage, things that might be handed down from generation to generation, with an artful twist.
 Do you have something special that has been handed down in your family that reflects your heritage?
I'd love to hear your history.

  2. The thing that comes to mind is an ancient family bible. It's huge, falling to bits and pieces, and I really don't know what to do with it. Sigh.

    Now I'm imagining what it is you are working with...a wedding dress?

  3. can't wait to see what transforms...I have so many things from my mom...can't even begin with what I gathered from her house before we unloaded it all...little by little, I am getting through it and making memories along the way...

  4. I have three quilts that my grandmother made; they need repair but I have thought since I don't really have the skills to repair them that I might make wall hangings for my daughter and nieces to share something that their great grandmother made.
