Alle nieuwe materialen moeten door mij uitgeprobeerd worden . Door mijn intuitieve manier van werken ontstaan vaak verrassende creaties. I make small pieces of art every day and love to improvise. Often I just look for colours that match or material that itches in my hands as I want to do something with it. I love to work with new materials and try eveything out. Nothing is safe for my soldering iron, my heatgun or even my iron.(with parchment paper on top!)I don't know what boredom is.

Elmer
Dit is een kaart van 15 x 15 cm die ik gemaakt heb voor Linda in Australiƫ die ook lid is van Fibermail. Ik doe niet mee met alle kaart ruilen maar ik vond het wel erg leuk om Elmer te maken.
This elephant card I made for the Fibermail elephant swap and now it has to travel all the way to Australiƫ to Linda.
http://q-linda.blogspot.com/ I love Elmer and it was fun to make.

Publiciteit is altijd leuk.
Deze sculptuur heb ik laatst gemaakt naar een uitdaging bij Fibermail . Hij is , samen met een aantal anderen gepubliceerd in het nieuwste nummer van Quilt & Zo dat gisteren uitkwam. Ik ben er heel trots op! De uitleg over het ontstaan van dit werk kun je vinden als je terug gaat naar mijn bericht van 15 januari 2010.

Ragquilt voor Pelle
Ik heb in Florida ook nog een ragquiltje gemaakt voor Pelle, mijn kleinzoon, om als knuffeldekentje te gebruiken. Ik hoef er vast niet bij te vertellen dat hij gek op tractors is.
On vacation in Florida I also made this rag quilt for my grandson Pelle. I'm sure I don't have to tell you that he loves tractors.I bought the application at Jo-ann's.

Fibermail Sampler
Terug uit Florida. Ik heb weer 6 blokken van mijn sampler af. Klik op de link als je even een kijkje wilt nemen.
Back from Florida.I made 6 blocks there for my Fibermail Sampler.
Have a look by clicking on the link.
Did you see all the blocks on my Picasa webalbum? I have finished 77
now. They are bigger than a Dear Jane. The blocks are 6,5 by 6,5 inch.
A lot of them are made as paper piecing (wow, that was hard to learn!)
but others are made with malla , applique and other techniques like
chenille and embroiderie.
The idea was to make 81 but I enjoy it so much that I am making a few
more even. It will be big enough for a bed quilt than.
It is a project from our moderator from the Fibermail group here in
Holland. If you would like to join you are most welcome! We do
everything via the computer. Everybody reads and speaks English
If you are interested let me know. We have a lot of swaps, mainly
postcards and small projects. Trees, the moderator from this group
came with the idea of a sampler. I never was a traditional quilter but
now I love doing this because every block is different so its never
boring.We get 2 new blocks every weekend but there is no time limit.
You can make some blocks or non at all and in your own time.They are
all in the files so you could start from the beginning if you would
like to do so.
