A Little Fiber Play

It's been a while since I posted,  but I have been busy being creative.  My latest creative fun has been playing with fabric and fibers and dyeing liquid.  I then went on to play a little with drop spindle spinning. I have been having a ton of fun playing,  I just wish I had more time to play and an actual studio to play in. This was the outcome of my latest play session.

Oh, and I've sent off my LOL application. Now the wait to find out that I can test!   Positive thoughts needed!

My Latest Projects

I have been trying to make a point to create more often.  I had a period where I was just too tired to complete anything.  I know how much better I feel better I feel when I make a point to create.

My recent projects have included a mug rug swap, embroidery for my daughter's room, some English paper piecing, some Valentine's day projects, and most recently a Japanese stab binding book.  I am really trying to do something create every day!

Not only have I been actually making things, I have been reading about how to color my own fabric and learning about the history of quilt making.  I am hoping to buy some fabric dyes and paints and start creating my own fabric.  

I have been having a great time being creative and can't wait to continue!

Happy Creating,
Amy
