Art Aprons

So far my aprons have been sewn aprons - my art is the selecting and assembling fabric, but not the actual creation of the fabric.

So my newest additions will be of three types - batik, painted (both hand and spray) and tie dye.

The problem will be cost of creation versus what people will actually pay.  I am seeing the beauty of Andy Warhol right about now....Is it art if it is produced on an assembly line?

Memory Bears - Remembering Loved Ones

My newest endeavor is Memory Bears. What's a memory bear? I am glad you asked!

Memory Bears are stuffed bears that are made to remember a loved one who has died. Some bears have pouches to place a lock of hair, and some are made of articles of clothing or a special item that belonged to a loved one.

I made several bears from the flannel shirts that a friends father always wore -one for each of the daughters - an example is on the right.
