The Zine Scene

This is the latest issue of  Odd Ball Charm. This one is completely in color and it is like a little charm of a zine. I am loving the color and the cover girl.



And I managed to do a little tutorial about the freeform embroidery work I do.
So sweet, I am loving this zine.



This is soulcraft issue no. 4.



I am beyond thrilled to include three artist interviews.
Cathy Cullis, Monica Magness and Magaly Ohika.... plus an article by artist Lynne Hoppe. This was new for me but I really liked the process and I would like to  make it a regular feature in the zine. a three artist feature and an artist article, laced with other artsy writing and projects.



I even came up with another  fabric bead tutorial for this issue.

Both zines are available in My Shop.
With more pictures and a description.



There has been a lot going on. I finished up the I Heart Zines exchange and will be posting pictures soon. You are going to LOVE what they did. 


For now, I am getting ready for a Holiday Art Show on Thursday, so I am sewing like a mad woman to get things done. 

Thanksgiving Day Parade 2009

This year, we did the same thing as last. The parade was ok. It wasn't as cold as last year. But regardless of the weather, I wasn't as excited about it... it seems like it is the same thing every year. 

The kids had a nice time. But I think we will stay home next year.

Since my father died Thanksgiving night 2002, it is always an odd day for me. I am not sure that I know exactly what it is I feel.

my new zine

This is  my new zine Odd Ball Charm no. 6.



A full color zine with some really fun projects and an art challenge, including 
a pattern and instructions  for my 'Odd Bird' pictured above.
It also comes with a little packet of crafty goodness.
I  have posted a few on my Etsy shop.
