Hi Felicity, I just looked at your work here and had to pop over to the Art Quilts Around the World site to read about your methods. I love your burned quilts! Thanks for explaining how you achieved the depth of colors and textures. Wow!

Thanks for inviting your friends, Felicity! Several have joined and all seem wonderful. I've had contact with Dijanne in the past and love her work, so it's very nice to see her jump on board here.

Welcome, Felicity! I saw from your blog that you will find some people you already know over here. And, there are several other Australians here, too. Every member here has a blog that is linked to the front page. You can use it to introduce yourself and to keep us updated on your news. You should also load some photos soon as this is how most people start connecting with each other. You'll find some tips on how to use the site under "Notes" on the front page, but it helps to click on tabs at the top of the page so you know where everything is. You can change the template of your page to something that reflects your tastes. Lots of options available that you can tweak.

Please feel free to join any groups or discussions that interest you! We're happy to have you! Make yourself at home!

Free Vintage Paper Doll Pattern



Karen's Whimsey has this free Paper Doll pattern on her website.  Clothing for the doll also available.  Images are in the public domain.


American Folk Art Doll Pattern



This doll pattern and other folk patterns can be purchased at Cloth Doll Supply.  Their description:

HISTORICAL FOLK DOLL #11
The New York Doll

This 16" doll has made herself quite famous by being chosen to be on the cover of a well-known book of American Folk Dolls, by Wendy Lavitt. She is such a good doll for a cover as she has just about all the best details of this type of doll. Separate fingers, a wonderful and exaggerated face and hair all carefully embroidered, including her remarkable feather-stitched eyebrows, and a costume of just-right simplicity and detail. She has with her the same small cat the doll in the photo has. Silkscreened for embroidery and new antiquing methods included.
Pattern (mini-kit) #PGW725 - $42.00

#503: Flapper Slip-On Evening Dress $16.00 (US dollars)

A typical dropped waist of the Roaring Twenties is created by a yoke over the hips. The tiers of circular flounces form a lovely vision while dancing. The scarf and the tie sash patterns are included. This pattern is quick and easy to make.

Moccasins and Leather Craft Patterns


HOW TO MAKE LENAPE STYLE MOCCASINS
Shared by Mèssochwen Tëme

The same pattern is used for both feet so you only have to make one pattern. Once you make the pattern you're all set, and you can save it for making more moccasins in the future.
