BEAD INSPIRATIONS

Check out Darra Williamson's blog today.....she's featured bead inspirations..... I'm flattered to be included.  

Darra is a talented quilter who is also an excellent editor.  I've been lucky enough to work with her through various publications for many years. Love this gal and you'll love the See How We Sew blog for its superior content.

PATCHWORK QUILT ANIMATION

Today I'd like to share a link that was posted to the Fiber Arts Alliance message board .....an informal Asheville, NC, fiber group that meets the first Tuesday of the month. It's great to have contact with so many creative stitchers who share so much with each other!

Click the link above and you'll find a tribute to patchwork quilting via an abstract animated film that uses computer and experimental techniques to choreography quilt motifs and designs to music.

It's presented by the National Film Board of Canada whose missions is to make independent films available to the public. I love how we can find quilter's influences in so many unexpected places.
