I'm Happy, I'm So Happy!

Those who know me, know that I'm not one for self-aggrandizement (boasting or exaggerating) but I was checking my Soy Wax Inspirations DVD on www.amazon.com and found four wonderful reviews! As an author and teacher, the worst thing that can happen is to have my workshops or books to be found lacking anything. So to my utter delight the reviews were all FOUR stars ****

One review said: I wish I could give it 6 stars. Yes, it is THAT good! This is not the usual, simple stamping of fabric with soy covered objects. Many ideas presented were a first for me. 

Another said: .... this DVD gave clear instructions on layering dyes and soy wax which builds a gorgeous softly blended richness on the fabric that you can't easily get with regular wax! 

And another: Susan covered the subject completely.

Thank you all so very much, its wonderful to know that you felt the DVD was good! So to celebrate, I will include one soy wax resist fat quarter for any orders of the DVD, until the end of August. Don't delay, do here to order: http://fabricimagery.com/soy-wax-inspirations-dvd/

Thank you, Thank you!

Catching Up!

Travelling is a big part of how I spend my time. Last month I was in North Dakota, teaching for a great guild in Bismarck. I hadn't expected to encounter a snow storm!


Then I was home for a few days and managed to make for soy wax resist fat quarters for my trip to Ontario.








packed up all my goodies and headed to Ottawa three weeks ago. I taught for six guilds over 3 1/2 weeks and visited my beautiful grand daughter. It was also be a great chance to reconnect with many friends, take pictures, do some sketching and very little housework!

Now its back in the studio to work on my next projects......................
