“Inchies” and “Plus Size Inchies” have become one of my daughter Beth’s latest fabric art projects. These are 1-inch or 1 1/4-inch squares that you embellish.

Here’s the latest creation Beth made for the Round Robin her fiber arts group (Fiber Explorers) are doing. She made it as a page for Carmen’s book with the them of “In the Woods.” Since we have trillium among the wild flowers growing the three acres of woodland around our home, it seemed appropriate to […]

Perhaps Noreen’s creativeness will give you inspiration for making yo-yo projects. Yo-yo’s are very versatile and can be used for decorative effect or making […]
