Stitch Alchemy

I recently participated in a book study on the yahoo group Mixed Media Art Friends run mainly by Belinda Spiwak. The book was by Kelli Nina Perkins titled Stitch Alchemy. Kelli participated in the group too so it was a lot of fun and much colorful art was, and still is being created. Kelli offered to send a gift to anyone who posted some of their work created through the book to the photo albums of the mmartfriends and then left a comment on her blog http://ephemeralalchemy.blogspot.com/ She was true to her word and I received this lovely little booklet from her yesterday. It is made with her hand painted, stamped, stitched fabric paper and has pages inside, some are also painted or stamped or made from recycled papers. What a delightful surprise! Thanks Kelli! Her book, Stitch Alchemy is full of so much saturated color and great ideas for creating useful or whimsical items, it was fun to work through it and I'm going to be referring to it for a long time.

Be well.
