Kate Themel's Fabulous Fiber Art

Wowed by the fiber art creations of Kate Themel, I just had to share them!
Kate, who lives in Connecticut, asks, "Who needs paint?"
She prefers fabric as her artistic medium, and then adds 
machine stitching to achieve texture, depth, and detail.
Honey Bee, above, with a close up below, shows off her level of expertise.
Enjoy these fine examples of Kate's true talent and creativity!

Julia Peculiar's Fun Mixed Media Creations

Peculiar? Yes!
And also very creative, very colorful, and very, very cool!

Julia's handcrafted paper dolls, brooches & magnets are wonderful.
Her mixed media creations bring a touch of funky and a blast of fun!
Take a look at some of my faves~

This one is a bit "Tina Turner-esque," wouldn't you say? 

Romantic Victoriana!

Julia likes to make fanciful mermaids!
This one is articulated.

A bevy of mini butterfly shadowboxes!

This little gal is a sweet as sugar!
