Hello everybody!
Saw a mention of this Craft Corner and I intend on scrolling through all the 250+ pages to see what people have been making. Quiltmaker here and occasional transpersonal art therapist. Currently facing homelessness so have been sorting out little portable projects I can do by hand. I had the best intentions to reduce my fabric stash by 40% but with the op shops closed and not taking donations...looks like I just have to keep everything! (shucks) I found my late uncle's pucka Army blanket from 1969 which I might keep out and tizzy up with embroidery and appliques.
Over the last 12 years I have been doing a form of art therapy that has a trademarked name, and this is one of the cards I made. The woman's face is an image from an advertisement I clipped out of a magazine so it's not me. Title: Buried Treasure (27 Nov 2009)
Thanks @Maggie
this is another one I made back in 2009.. Years later I read the lyrics to a tune by Alanis Morrisette called Bent 4 You and I really like that name for this image.
