The theme for The Sketchbook Challenge, this month, is flower doodles, so I did my doodles with the sewing machine.

I love working in felt. Remember this Recycled Circles pillow I did? (and remember, I have a DVD out on how to make recycled circles.)

    Jane! I live in the Hill Country, outside of San Antonio...these pieces make me feel like I am at one of our amazing Meixcan markets downtown! Some good food, and your molas...and we're south of the border.
    I love how you freshened an ancient art!...nice tutorial pics, too!
