The Purple Lady's 29-Day Challenge
The Purple Lady is at day 19 of her 29 day challenge.
I first stumbled upon this lovely blog during the One World One Heart event that I particpated in.
The Purple Lady is not only a generous and creative blogger, she is a true animal lover. She crochets lovely nests out of yarn to be used by wildlife rescue agencies. Baby squirrels, opossums, and birdies have soft & cozy colorful homes thanks to her talent and kindness.
Pop by her blog, enter the daily giveaways, but also spend some time reading about this great blogger.

Commenting fixed
Visitors to my blog, and any blog who uses a same-page comment box with word verification have had issues leaving messages. The captcha would not load, but would just say "Loading..." (and yes, I tried writing Loading... as the word - doesn't work! haha).
I have removed the word verification requirement from my blog so that everyone is free to comment.
Now please don't let this be in vain - leave comments! LOL
big hugs to all of my readers.
you inspire me.

Charity Art Quilt Project - Group 2
I am thrilled and proud to show off the second group of 3 art quilt squares I have received for my Charity Art Quilt Project
The first set of squares I received can be seen in my January 24, 2009 post.
Now on to the new fabulous squares.
The first in this group comes from CherylinMI, a quiet member of Craftster . She had no posts when she first contacted me about getting involved in the project, so needless to say I was surprised and excited. A perfect stranger jumping on board truly warms my heart.
Her work is amazing. Check out the detail in this piece, with the bold colors and lovely accents. Thank you so much, Cheryl!

The second square comes from the fabulous embroidery diva, KittyKill. I have admired her work
on Craftster and Flickr, and was so happy when she agreed to join this project. Look at this delightful dancing gypsy lady (with a familiar haircut!). Her dress is dotted with tiny wee pearls, and she holds a bouquet of bead flowers. She is absolutely beautiful! Thank you, Kittykill!

The third square in this set comes from a Canadian woman I know very well.
When my sister, Cindy Brown, heard about my project and saw the first quilt squares, she knew she had to get on board. Now my sister is more known for being a packrat than an artist, so I will admit to being a bit nervous. My nervousness became horror when I caught her looking at some tiny teddy bears wearing bumblebee costumes to attach to her square. Fortunately for me, and the quilt, she toned it down a little and made this surprisingly beautiful piece. She handbeaded the gypsy 'trails" onto the fabric to tell the story of their journeys.
Lovely work, Cindy. Thank you.

I am still seeking textile artists of any kind to participate, so please, if you are interested, just send me a message via email (address in sidebar), on Craftster , or just leave a comment with a way to contact you, and I will respond asap. You can embroider, make a fabric collage, quilt, applique, fabric paint, felt, etc. The only requirements are that the square be 8x10 inches (portrait orientation), with a theme of "Gypsy" - however you choose to interpret that.
Once I have all of the quilt squares, I will assemble the quilt with a simple backing and border to best showcase the beautiful works of art, and it will be auctioned off to raise money for the orphans and street kids of Romania.
