Once she has mastered one technique and pushed it where she wants it to go Manuela starts another. Now she is corking to produce straps for her purses. but, today, she added beads into the mix. As you can see, she has one thread strung with many beads and as she corks she manoeuvres the beads to become embedded evenly throughout the cord. And she can do this while watching tv. Me, I can hardly watch tv. String the beads loosely onto the thread. Determine the spacing of the beads as you cork.
Mannie has yet done another of her whimsical fabric art pieces. As usual se has used dyed material, dyed antique lace,hand made thread fabric, embroidery stitches and found objects (hardware items form Home Depot). I'm never sure what she is thinking when she does her work; the images just appear as she works on the canvas.
