I have this lovely white fabric -- yards and yards of it.  I was going to make sheets and pj&amp;#39;s and things like that -- use it for lining things, but now I see that I can paint it and create some incredible pieces.
My sewing machine is a singer from the 1970&amp;#39; -- sturdy,w with some different stitches -- but how do I possible progress to where all of you are?  how do you start from ground zero?  You are all so accomplished -- and then, where do you find places to sell your things?  I need to know this too!

Thank you all for your time and help.  I think all of the things you do is amazing!

I have not tried altered books but they look like fun. I will have to try.

When I am stressed I love to load my long arm quilting machine with Dissolve 4x, spray it with 505 adhesive spray and load that area with left over threads and yarn. I can throw in a little tinsel or angelina fibers. I sew a grid top to bottom and left to right. I do some decrative stitches. Then I soak it in water. The finished product is a very cool piece of fabric to turn into a purse or vest etc. I can even ad hot fix angelina after to get more drama. Very fun and very cool. oool

I think I&amp;#39;ll have to try this in my art journal or next altered book page.  Thank you for sharing! :)

When I&amp;#39;m stressed I create.  It doesn&amp;#39;t matter what I do, I just lock myself in my studio and I always come out feeling much happier.
