a fiber related post...

Instead of architecture today I have pictures of fiber art to post. First my journal from two weeks ago, yep I am way behind, but I will catch up. Here's 28{52}...We went to a doll museum, on a visit that I though would be mostly for my daughters entertainment. Boy was I wrong.. most fabulous art creations.. beautiful 3D portraits in fabric of different literary figures, dolls representing just about every international fairytale. Most made by the graduating students of St. Petersburg Theatrical Institute. I'll be going back there again. And I will post more info about this great place later too...Then a visit with a fellow art quilter that I met on the internet, Irina Mozhaeva. She was gracious enough to invite me to her apartment to look at her work and share a bit of mine.

Hi, Natalya~

Thanks for sharing your photos. The dolls are great. It must have been fun meeting your art quilter friend.

We have not met, but I enjoy your work. I've nominated you for two blog awards. See my post: http://fanniecarte.blogspot.com/2008/07/awards.html

Thanks for the inspiration.
