Ok, so I am a sucker for Threadless T-shirts. I have way too many of them already. I blame my brother for turning me into a threadless junkie...
So, right now they are having a great sale--$12 tees!!

I really wish I could figure out how to post links to stuff. I need more bloggin knowledge.

and if you become a threadless junkie, don't blame me, I am warning you now! they have tons of neat designs and the whole concept is super cool. all the designs are by different artists...

Namaste Bag, Art Swap, and my first freezer paper stencil....






Namaste Bag
Originally uploaded by Trixie SweetWolf
I made this bag as part of a Namaste Art Swap. It was organized by the beautiful lady who is http://prettyinpeace.etsy.com/

since I am not so much an 'artist', I decided to go with the medium I know best--fabric! There were a lot of 'firsts' here for me: my first time doing a swap like this, was my first time doing a freezer paper stencil (it worked very well!) and it was my first 'log cabin' style patchwork attempt.
I designed the symbol to represent the meaning of Namaste. (also a first, designing a symbol!)

It's very bright, hope my swapee likes it!!
and once I get my item, I'll tell you about that!
cheers
and
Namaste...

I love the outlet, but it is a weird place. You have to be careful not to cut yourself, there is broken glass everywhere. It's like a junk free for all. People go crazy when they roll out the new carts.

what should I do with this?

I made this crazy quilt square in January, for the collage a day project. (which i didn't do very long, lame me)
I want to make something with it, I just can't decide what....
a clutch?
a tote?
a wall hanging?

I probably will add some embellishments to it before I make anything, and add some embroidery stiches.
What does this rectangle want to be when it grows up?

Help me decide! please leave a comment and give me a suggestion.
