Hello Fellow Artists

This is my FIRST blog and I am very excited!! If this shows up on the Free-Spirit -Artist blog it is due to Wil's infinite patience and Kelly's nudging!

So I have 2 friends who get me hooked on all kinds of weird and wonderful  addictionsand since I'm just a girl who cain't say "NO" here I am on a blog!

I have always been a "crafty" lady and love doing things with my hands. I learned to knit when I was 8 and I still knit up a storm when the inspiration strikes. 15 friends have new scarves because I like the yarn! I have needlepointed- all my men have tallis bags ; quilted- new babies get alphabet quilts and little boys get cars - and anything else that piques my interest. When I retired from management training I joined a Senior Centre and took great classes. I played with polymer clay and made lovely jewelery using faux techniques and image transfer. I have been doing collages and then started watercolor painting. Lately I have been combining the techniques and I'll share this journey - and anything else that strikes me along the way.Oh - and did I mention that I'm addicted to ATCs???

So thanx to Kelly and Wil for this new adventure! I hope I haven't gone on too long....

  2. Love my knitting and crocheting too, also did tapestries and lots of crossstitch embroidery for years. But no polymer clay- I look forward to seeing how you combine different media.
