Fabricadabra: March 2008
http://materialeyes.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 30, 2008. I have been stuck on this module for months. I absolutely cannot find a way to enjoy doing it. What has to be done- hand quilting- is not fun on this piece and is extremely time consuming. Catherine, my tutor, has told me to get rid of some of the layers. But I have no vision for this. By Friday I pledge to have the quilting completed and posted or no more flickr for a week! Links to this post. Tuesday, March 11, 2008. PS Will someone please rescue me from the clutches of flickr!

Fabricadabra: July 2009
http://materialeyes.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 20, 2009. It's Time to Put My Feet Up! I see this is my first post in over a year. My excuse: My intention was to start taking photos to inspire my quilting. You will notice the previous posts are 100% quilting. I have completely fallen off the quilting bandwagon. Money (and time) that went into quilting has been diverted to photography. For those of you considering photography I have one warning - It's more expensive than quilting! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Art of the ...

Fabricadabra: Accepted Unexpected
http://materialeyes.blogspot.com/2008/03/accepted-unexpected.html
Tuesday, March 11, 2008. Today, I received the two, official rejection letters in somewhat bulky envelopes. To my shock, since I had already reconciled rejection, both entries had been accepted! My first time entering a juried show and twice lucky. It makes turning 50 tomorrow a little easier to bear. I posted this dancing anthirrium on flickr but it seems appropriate that it should do its dance in this post. PS Will someone please rescue me from the clutches of flickr!

Blog, blogen, bocken?: Midget Blöckchenwand
http://laueslueftchens-seite.blogspot.com/2010/04/midget-blockchenwand.html
Blog, blogen, bocken? Oder ich wollte nie bloggen. Samstag, 1. Mai 2010. Ich habe mir vorgenommen wöchentlich ein Sentimental Stitches. Blöckchen zu nähen, sie sind in der Größe 10x10cm. Irgendwann soll daraus ein Quilt enstehen. Wenn ich Lust oder Zeit habe, wird einfach ein Blöckchen mehr genäht. Abonnieren Kommentare zum Post (Atom). Mein Profil vollständig anzeigen.

Thursday, October 11, 2007. Gorgeous gift, tortuous gift. My partner brought me this stunning pearl necklace from Austria's brilliant Oesterreichische Werkstaetten. http:/ www.oew.at/eng/products/index.php. Fellow artists and craftspeople listen up.

Blog, blogen, bocken? Oder ich wollte nie bloggen. Dienstag, 2. März 2010. Ich habe die Februarvariante noch mal im Bildbearbeitungsprogramm geöffnet und in Schw. Weiß umgestellt. Ganz rechts ist die schon vernähte Variante, ich muß sagen ,dass wohl in meinem Fall die untersten Streifen vertauscht werden sollten (ganz links auf dem Bild), weil sich etwas , beißt".

Monday, April 07, 2008. The April/May 08 Issue Somerset Memories. I'm thrilled to see this in print finally. Hmmm, looking at some of the other pages in this issue, I'm wondering if it wouldn't be time for a page kit swap.I'll kick the idea around some more. Maybe make 5/get 5? Each person puts together coordinated papers, embellishments, extras etc. in an agreed-upon size format. Required: some hand-finished and altered elements (e.g., inked, gessoed, painted, collaged).

Fabricadabra: December 2007
http://materialeyes.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 20, 2007. The wind must have blown it open. No wind. I wandered through the house a bit to see if I felt a presence. I didn't. But I did decide I would be safest outside so I stood outside in absolute stillness and silence for 5 minutes until I started shivering. Should I call the police? Should I wake up my husband to help me check the house? Should I check the house myself. No. No. and Yes. I am not brave I am an idiot! Links to this post. Wednesday, December 19, 2007.

Fabricadabra: February 2008
http://materialeyes.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 10, 2008. I was looking forward to doing the English Patchwork/Colour Exploration activity as soon as I saw it. I chose a photo by TIO, a New York photographer. He has kindly allowed me to use his vibrant image of a Santeria dancer. (I only know him as TIO.) This is the link to his picture. http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/66179962@N00/1840462551/. Objective: Observe and note colour gradations, patterns, textures, accent colours and proportions of colour in an image that has strong appeal.
