Just wanted to say I'll be back with the pebble sketchbook as soon as I can but I really need to work on my art quilt entry for Festival of Quilts. The deadline is looming and it's taking up a lot of my time at the moment
I may not be back here for a couple of weeks but I'm posting on Love Stitching Red if you want to pop over there and see what I'm up to from time to time
The beauty of natural colours

Hi there - I saw your quilt at the NEC and alathough I had seen your photos they don't do it justice - I thought it was wonderful and spent ages looking at it x
Hi Carolyn - I've just discovered your amazing blog and am now following it. I have been looking for tutorials on heat fusing, particularly bubble wrap, and you have filled in the gaps in my knowledge and I am now experimenting!! You are one of the most talented multi-media artists I have ever come across and I am amazed at the breadth of your imagination and use of different materials! You truly are an inspiration.
I've put some photos of my first "meltings" on my blog, and have posted a link to your blog on the Art forum I am on.
Many thanks!
Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog!!!
I love "what-iffing" too - it's such fun!
I have a whole collection of photos taken on different holidays of walls, cobbles, stones etc. I love the textures and colours, and am inspired how you use them in your art. I must do more!!
Do you have a gallery in St. Ives? We live in S. Devon and I'd love to come down and have a look sometime and maybe meet you!
ou are so ridiculously talented! i'm gobsmacked by the volume of work you have, how long have you been doing this for? I have done so much research into work like this and nothing has ever appealed to me until i saw this.
I am 18 and currently doing an art foundation course at Loughborough. I'm concentrating on textile techniques for fashion for my final project. your work is perfect for what I'm doing. it is alright if i take inspiration from your work and use some of the techniques you have shown? if i need a hand with a few things may i contact you?
Emily.
