More Design/Zero Waste!
Idea: It IS possible to create beautiful projects using less waste or even NO wasting of materials. In this video you will see a handful of projects I have created using my own zero-waste designs: © Chroma-flower and
© Flutter-fly. Wouldn't it be fun to create a community project with one or more of these designs? Send me a note :-)Vibrant artwork and brief explanation of my mixed media and fiber art process.

    Amazing, wasn't it? So up there you had basically cloudy skies during the afternoon? We were down in Hammondsport at Keuka Lake and had the experience of the darkness and amazing drop in temperature. Would have been great, of course, to actually see the event, but at least had a unique experience. Thanks for posting this. My camera didn't fully capture the change from light to dark.Had the weather cooperated better, I would had driven up to Penn Yan, which was slightly inside the path .

    • @TheWonderPieceCollection
      @TheWonderPieceCollection 9 місяців тому

      I am so glad we made the effort to be outside in a beautiful park. Even though it was cloudy the two minute blackness that overtook us was just phenomenal. I did not particularly notice the drop in temperature as it was already pretty cool, but what a life altering experience! I will always remember it. We were up at Seneca Lake State Park in Geneva.

    • @KSguitarmusic
      @KSguitarmusic 9 місяців тому

      @@TheWonderPieceCollection I had hoped to capture it better on my video cam, but it just doesn't show it as dark as it truly was. You guys likely had more since you were right in the path. Too bad it wasn't the day before which was absolutely not a cloud in the sky all day. My daughter drove from where she lives in CA to Russellville, AR - visiting relatives - and got the full experience with basically clear skies. You're right...life altering. I'll never forget it. You also had longer darkness being right in the path. Keuka Lake was a bit outside. The edge of the path can vary by as much as a thousand feet on either side being that the width of the sun is not fully known so it could be that Penn Yan may or may not have experienced the predicted 37 seconds of totality. Do you live up that way? We drove about 300 miles to get up to the Finger Lakes. We love it there anyway, so with or without the eclipse it made for a fun weekend! Got to visit several wineries on Sunday, which was lovely for driving around.

    Thank you for sharing your story. I loved all of it and can relate. I am going to be 70 this year and have sewn for 50 years. I enjoy making things and love nature, color, fabric and texture. I have made many things including quilts and wall hangings. I’m hesitant to try art quilts and would love to share them. I’m not very confident in my ability to do this. Can you recommend to any of us that need some help in getting started. Especially at my age. Thank you.

    • @TheWonderPieceCollection
      @TheWonderPieceCollection 11 місяців тому

      Hi Marie. Thank you so much for sharing as well! Don't worry about what anyone thinks, just go for it. For me, having a chance to just look at art in general, is very inspiring and Art is always subjective. I would say, just get out and go see an art exhibit or quilt exhibit ) that interests you take a look at what’s in the exhibit. What draws you in? What do you absolutely like/not like? Take notes. It's YOUR journey. . It’s OK not to like certain things and it’s OK to love certain things like I said, it’s all subjective. As far as being creative, maybe start with a smaller size canvas. You would be surprised at what you can do s working smaller . Do you happen to like batik fabric? I love batiks and find it so versatile to work with it. It’s also a really high-quality tightly woven fabric that makes working smaller easier. Get to know your fabric types, and look around on UA-cam to see what you like art-wise and working with smaller types of pieces. I hope this helps. Please let me know how things go for you.

    Actualmente son muchos los vídeos, canales, qué se dedican al patchwork, pero ésta, su serie, me ha sorprendido mucho, sólo la artesanía de la costura, ya es admirable, pero su creatividad me recuerda a pinturas,a las estructuras de Gaudí, de Tapiés, además, claro que la fotografía ha sido un plus, además es usted pianista??

      Ángeles, que te hayas tomado el tiempo para comentar tan atentamente mi trabajo significa mucho para mí de una manera tan sincera. También me gustaría tomarme el tiempo para responderte adecuadamente, ya que planteas algunos puntos interesantes. Dios mío, decir que mi trabajo te recuerda a Gaudí es un gran cumplido para mí. Es extraño, pero hace muchos años tuve el gran privilegio de viajar a Barcelona para el Festival Mundial de Música y Danza Folclórica de 2004. Por supuesto, pude experimentar la genialidad del arte de Gaudí en persona. Cualquier cosa en mi obra que sea similar a Gaudí es ciertamente subconsciente. Tendré que aprender más sobre el artista que mencionas, Tapies :-) Sí, también soy pianista profesional, y quizás eso haya influido también en mi trabajo. Siempre me ha gustado la música Y el arte y no puedo vivir sin ninguno de los dos. Gracias por ser una persona tan abierta y perceptiva que camina sobre esta Tierra.

A true Renaissance woman, hahahaha. Your work is truly beautiful.🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀🇪🇦" My reply: "Angeles, Your taking the time to so thoughtfully comment on my work means so much to me in such a heartfelt way. I would also like to take the time to answer you properly, as you bring up some interesting points. Oh my goodness, to say that my work is reminding you of Gaudi is such a tremendous compliment to me. It is is strange, but many years ago , i had the great pirivilege to travel to Barcelona for the World Folk Music and Dance Fsitival of 2004. Of course I was able to experience the genius of Gaudi's art in person. Anything in my work that is similar to Gaudi is most certainly subconcious. I will have to learn more about the artist you mention, Tapies :-) Yes, I am also a professional pianist, and perhaps that has influenced my work as well. I have always loved music AND art and can't really be without either. Thank you for being such an open and perceptive person walking on this Earth. "
