I am so pleased to relay Linda’s good news about her upcoming fabric line for Avlyn. She also gives me / Artquiltmaker.com some kudos, which I also appreciate.

I have an announcement, Quotes for Today,Cool things I love,Quilting Cartoon,Pet Beds,Your Color Fix for Today
WOO HOO…HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

I am truly excited to announce my collaboration with Avlyn Fabrics as one of their fabric designers. My first collection is fun, fresh, and whimsical.
The kind of fabric that makes you happy!

When I first put my pencil to paper, my thoughts were of you, the quilter, sewer and crafter. We LOVE color and that was a no brainer for me as I am a huge lover of color too. I designed this first collection with some of the things I love……can you tell I am being quite secretive??? Believe me, I am full of anticipated excitement to show you the finished fabrics…..but we are still working on a “name” and finishing up the coordinates. I know in my heart you will love it!

Creative Prompt Response: Blue

I decided to set a good example for all of my faithful CPP participants and create my response right away.

I have to admit that I was tempted to use a previous photo of some blue pieces that will be a quilt.

Here is my response to blue, which incorporates the quilt-to-be that I mentioned above, but is still mostly in the planning and cutting stages

Kim Remembers

Kim's CPP Response: Remember
Kim's CPP Response: Remember

The Creative Prompt Project is spreading slowly to other artists. I am thrilled about this, because part of my goal for this project is to inspire other people to be creative.

My tiny, little sister uses paper and scrapbook pages as her artistic medium. She works in other media as well such as pottery and jewelry. Here is the response that she did for “Remember.” One of the things that excites me about her response is that her piece uses a different media than most of the rest of us use. It shows that you don’t have to draw to respond.

This page is about the Fisher Price barn that sissy had when she was a kidlet. She also had the castle, the house, the village and a number of other pieces of the Fisher Price little people toys. *I* remember how much fun we had creating scenarios with all of those pieces.

Thanks, sis.

Sketching #26

Creative Prompt Response: House
Creative Prompt Response: House

It is really sad when I just can’t get inspired to do my own creative prompt. I thought house would be a good one. Quilt Rat certainly came up with a fantastic response! I’ll have to keep this one percolating a little bit and, hopefully, come up with another response down the road. On to the next prompt!

I have had memory making on my mind, so this drawing seemed appropriate.

Sketching #22

Creative Prompt Response #22: Time
Creative Prompt Response #22: Time

The first thing I thought of with this prompt was an hour glass. It took me a bit of time to think of a way to incorporate it into the series of drawings on which I have been working.

I have been excited about using the different PITT pens that I bought recently. The tips are different widths. So far my favorite is the Fine. I see, as someone mentioned, how the XS can be great for defining things or adding depth. This is wonderful. I didn’t find it to be great for drawing the whole piece.

One thing I need to improve in my drawing is working with perspective. I didn’t add the right side of the hour glass, but may later after I do a bit of research.
