Nina, Signatures are sets of pages (say...sets of 8 pages) that are then stitched with other signatures to make a book. Hope I helped!

Wendy, You may want to try leather paint rather than acrylic, as acrylic paint will tend to crack if there's movement. Anybody else have ideas?

I found some great used shoes and wanted to paint designs on them, etc. The ribbons and fake gems are staying on great with fabri-tac (sp?) but my acrylic paint is starting to crack and peel. Anyone have an idea on how to prep the shoes before, seal afterwards, or a product to use that would make the paint stay? Thanks so much!

Wow, what a wonderful resource your site is. I make quilts for my troops when they return home from overseas and now you have given me so many more ideas. Thank you!

I don't plan to make Christmas gifts, but will likely use ATCs and other goodies as tags. My friends have very different tastes and there are other presents I think they would appreciate more. I love playing, though, and will make goodies over Christmas. I'm now blogging as well, inspired in part by this blog and the wonderful artists it's led me to. artisticalchemy.blogspot.com is where I'm posting my fun. Thank you for wonderful magazines that have provided me with hours and hours and hours of play.

I have been busy making fibre art bookmarks and pins to wear for a Christmas sale here in my home town with local artists. I am putting my new sewing machine ( Pfaff 2048) to the test. This was my retirement gift to myself after 30 years teaching school. I have also made beaded earrings for family members for the holidays. Using beads gets me to play with colour and pattern in a very relaxing and inexpensive way. Then I get to wear my creations!I have just started to blog and very soon I'll figure how to put photos on it. fibrejournal.blogspot.com is my blog, hope you will visit. Thank You Pokey for these marvellous technique blogs, its like getting More Quilting Arts Magazine!!!

I made some quilted coasters for Christmas gifts this year. I quilted two 4 inch pieces of some beautiful fabric that I bought in Provence in 2004, sewed them together, and filled them with 3 inch muslin sacks of rice and lavender from my herb garden. When you put your hot beverage down on them, the smell of Provence in July wafts up. No pictures yet though because I was doing really good just to get the coasters made!

Can't thank you enough for the extension on my subscription! Your magazines are the only ones that I refer back to again and again. You have really managed to raise the bar on what a quality publication about fiber and paper arts should be and look like. Your magazines are like food for the creative soul.

Thanks Patricia. When I realized I was one of the five, it made my day. My current subscription to QA has made the rounds of all of my "artist" friends and I am constantly revisiting the back issues for techniques. I have been using the heat gun to slash and burn lately - QA Issue 17 - and the results have had me smiling from ear to ear! I look forward to every issue of both CPS and QA and having them come more often is icing on the cake. Thanks again. The generous gift and the wonderful inspiration it provides are greatly appreciated.

I, too, am thrilled to have my subscription extended a year. I get both your publications, and have ALL the issues. When a new issue comes I "save" it until I can have some savoring time in a comfy chair with a chai latte. Now I'll be able to do that even more often, thanks to your wise decision to do 6 instead of 4 issues a year. As for Christmas, I simply enjoy the extra time in my studio. I like to give art supplies rather than finished products.

Last year I made "Rumi cards" for a friend and she really liked them. (I can't show you what I'm making this year because it would ruin the suprise!) Here's the link to the cards: http://e14studio.blogspot.com/2005/12/rumi-cards.html

Question for the day: Are you making holiday gifts this year? If so, what? Yes, I have been making tree ornaments and fabric postcards. This is an seasonal event for me as I enjoy making a small gift for familly and friends. Pictures will be on my blog in the next few days.
