I’ve been sewing by hand and machine for over 40 years and making art using many different mediums. Sewing has been a favorite of mine for a long time, in the mid 70’s I made soft sculpture dolls and toys for an up scale craft boutique on Broadway in Chicago and in the late 70’s & 80’s I published in Stitch N Sew magazine for a series of soft sculpture dolls designed. In the 90’s I was given recognition by Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago and the Chicago Art Institute for visual art Instruction in the Chicago public school. Since the middle 90’s I have been creating in other fields of art such as mosaic, acrylics, recyclable art and the never ending love for sewing! My sewing and creative range when I sew are from one extreme to the next. One day I can make a soft pastel piece and the next a strikingly unusual piece with bright or dark colors, you can depend on me to bring different and unusual pieces to ones collection. Each piece I make no matter what it is has much time and thought put into it. I favor and appreciate the way sewing was done in the past about 80 plus years ago, by hand. I collect antique needled linens that have been sewn by women that had skills far superior than anything you see today. I really like the idea of something I have made being cherished in some ones collection to be seen for generations ahead. Many times when I am in the middle of creating a little character I bust out in laughter because I can see the character developing and it’s not always the cutest, many times they are funny looking or pitiful but I keep needling along and come up with what you are seeing on ebay, I do hope you like them. ~~Please Read Additional checkout instructions Below~~ ~ U.S Bids Only ~ Payments I accept ~ Pay Pal, Money order, Postal money orders, Cashiers checks, NO PERSONAL CHECKS..
