Art Quilting Studios by Stampington

One of Stampington's new magazines will be about Art Quilting. I read Jenny Doh's blog and I was thrilled to see this post about the new magazine. The second Or This... - the orange one, is mine! What a fun way to discover that I was going to be included in the premier issue of the new magazine.


HERE is where you can find information about the magazine. June will be here before we know it and I'm excited about this new magazine.

I love to participate in Stampington's Calls and Challenges for their magazines. The calls for this magazine gave me the courage to start 'art' sewing and moving my collages to fabric which has been tremendous fun for me.

Jan/Feb issue of Somerset Studio Magazine

It's a great treat to be published in a Stampington Magazine. Two pieces were published in Somerset Studio's Jan/Feb 2009 black and white challenge section. This clown came from a very old Japanese photo (below). I love his round WWII era glasses. The photo came from an old album that John brought back from Sydney on his last trip to Australia.


I made this color collage of the clown before the black and white one.


The house collage uses one of favorite images from an old CDV. (original is below)

These two girls must have been sisters. Their eyes are wonderful. You may remember their eyes from my old blog banner:

The sisters were also used in the mixed media piece "Cocoon" that was exhibited at Glenview Mansion show. Their gaze is so direct. It would have been a treat to know them.

Good news - I'm being republished...Stampington Publication.

I just heard from Stampington that they will be republishing my article from 2006 in the upcoming Stampington Publication called Artist's Cafe, Volume II. The magazine is coming out December 1, 2009
