The layering of all the components to make the finished piece. It is really cool. I am fascinating by all the block printing. Some day I hope to try some too. Thanks for linking up and sharing with last week's TGIFF.

I don't know what they are called but they almost look like felt with a think pile that keeps them from rolling. I got mine from a bead store when I was taking a class. Amazing the way the beads stick to it. If you have a bead store local I recommend checking there instead of Joanns. They likely will know what it is by my poor explanation. Then you can have a little more freedom in where you work with them.Heather Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06167107892372096625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-21982181538442492272016-07-12T01:51:59.665-04:002016-07-12T01:51:59.665-04:00There are mats for your beads to sit on so they do...There are mats for your beads to sit on so they don't roll off.

I also use a heavier one and don't mind that it makes larger stitches. :-)<br />Thank you for participating to my Fabric, Thread and Yarn link party.

Managing the process while sitting somewhere I can be mildly entertained is a bit of a chore. Watching the image I see in my head appear on my cloth is magnificent! Susan, I keep saying I love everything I do with fabric, but I really do!<br /><br />Thanks for being such a gracious hostess at Midweek Makers.<br /><br />JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834496271292973632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-40542838444721402492016-07-11T07:06:33.245-04:002016-07-11T07:06:33.245-04:00My question has been answered.

I think I've spent so much time sitting on a particular porch looking up at a front yard of Royal palms that they've imprinted on my brain. They have a unique way of moving with just the slightest breeze, and there is a faint rustle of the dried frond tips. You're aware of them with your eyes closed. That, I cannot quilt in.<br /><br />JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834496271292973632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-87207164264308330582016-07-11T06:59:28.118-04:002016-07-11T06:59:28.118-04:00Thank you, Kate!

I said to my husband last night as we had to find a few more supplies yesterday, "These are all just spokes on the wheel." Everything is related to making a mark or surface decoration on fabric or paper. Without a graphic or art background, though, I'm really doing some elementary things. I hope you enjoy the journey with me, and so glad to have you here!<br /><br />JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834496271292973632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-89133039598120683832016-07-11T06:54:54.987-04:002016-07-11T06:54:54.987-04:00Thank you so much.
