Divine Design

Recently, I have become enamored with delicate fiber work.

I'm sure this stems from my utter lack of ability 

with thread and needle,

yet the heart wants what the heart wants.

These two dazzling artists make me swoon

and I'd thought they'd like a try at your hearts too.

Enjoy.

Wish I Knew You: Allison Manch

A photographer doing something completely different?

LOVE it!

Allison takes old and found handkerchiefs 

and alters them with dyes and embroidery.

Her ingenuity & homage to her family tree are inspiring.

Her grandfather was a photographer, her grandmother a lace-maker.

New meaning to "Never leave home without your pearls."
