Welcome!

Thank you for visiting artful embellishments. This is the third year for this blog and I am so happy to keep publishing. I started in 2011 and began with a quilt of the week, this lead to the leaf of the week for my newly designed paper tree that is located on the wall of my garage in 2012.......2013 is going to bring a lot of excitement and positive change. As a personal challenge for 2013, I plan on designing a artist trading card each week to be featured on the blog.
With so many interests, there will be quilting, art quilting, leaves (and more leaves), as well as experiments in thermofax screen printing, fabric dying, and tons of DIY recycle projects. I may even enter that altered fashion scene. To a happy and healthy 2013, may we all find happiness in those things we create....thank you for stoping by artful embellishments.

Vintage Quilt and Rocking Chair



This quilt was done using a Moda charm pack. What is so amazing about these charm packs is that you get to see different fabrics together. These are often colors and patterns that you might not choose on your own. This quilt was pieced by me, and then quilted by Judy Becker of Quilted Cottage. The rocking chair and quilt are donated to With a Little Help From My Friends pet crisis center in Bellaire Michigan. This is an amazing organization that helps dogs and cats in their time of need. http://www.walhfmf.org/
