This weekend I have been working on a piece for a new fabric book Round Robin that I am taking place in. Below is one of my pages, as a work in progress. I have since added more stitching to the background and will show you the photo of the finished page in another post. I also finished off a Klimt doll for a friend. I am still really enjoying making these dolls, so I hope you're not getting bored with them (have a few more I have to make for friends).

The lovely Belinda of Metallic Dreams sent me the above art goodies in a surprise package which arrived this week. Soooo lovely to receive surprises in the mail and I do love art mail! The little blue face is a magnet which is now adorning my fridge and I will find somewhere special to hang her funky bird and little art doll. Next weekend I am doing a Vintage Journal class with Ro Bruhn with my art friend Dot. .. sure to have some pictures for my next post. Always such a fun day doing a class with Ro!
Enjoy your week, hope its a colourful one!

I love, love, love your easter page.
"capturing love" is adorable! im definitely coming back to this site! great work!
All gorgeous Jackie but I especially love your journal page!!
Hi Jacky. Glad you like my quilt for my grandfather. It was so rewarding to make and it means an awful lot to my mother as you can probably imagine. Love these latest dolls you have made - especiually the red one with the elaborate head dress.
Hi I also love mixed media and textile art - (I am originally an embroiderer/patchworker). Your Klimpt ladies are just lovely.
ooh, good to see the dolls in a flat format, they are too gorgeous not to expand upon.
what sweet klimt dolls! such wonderful details! look forward to seeing the page. have missed stopping by and getting inspired, glad my laptop is finally online :)
It was great to catch up with you again Jacky, so glad you could come to the workshop. I recognize the lovely Klimt doll, she now holds a very prominent place in my studio.
Lovely work, and the "Capturing Love" is captivating!
Every time I see the Klimt dolls I am always totally in love. True love. They trip my trigger! I hope you stay inspired to make them for a long long time.
