A little bit about me…
I have been working as a Fashion Designer for some years now and have always been interested in textured embellishments, from small decorations to all over fabric techniques. My style of texture decoration comes from combining both conventional and unconventional disciplines. For example free-machine embroidery can be great on its own, but why not mix it with another discipline like; felting, embroidery or weaving? I try to approach all crafts with the same way – why not mix it up a bit?
At Sara’s Texture Crafts I hope to be able to bring you the crafts and techniques that have been inspiring me recently, from finished artworks to clothing accessories, jewellery, rag dolls and fun decorations.

Thank you for your comment, I'm thinking about dawanda... does it worth it?
I'm sure that will take some time to do.
I was going to tell you the show went well last
week, I just received information that the show will now be 2 times a month instead of
every Monday.
I will let you know, so the show is not today
it will be next Monday.
Wendy
that will be fun!

look and I like what I see! Do you have anything thing vintage? buttons, beads, findings? I also have a store in my home town
and I'am always looking for some different to
add. Let me know we could also talk about it
on the Art Talk Radio show.
program I hope it right. http://vintageniki.typepad.com/art_talk_radio/
If that doesn't work just go to Art Talk Radio
and clik on to Niki Johnson.

jewelry for a while now and I'm all over the
place. The book idea is great, and I was going to start with finding your focal,last week
I did mention one source with the web site for
for beads and another site for findings, I might mention them again in the closing.
thank you so much, I think this is a great outline. Wish me luck!
