New here.

Hi, I found this via [info]shebaduhkitty. I was so inspired that I pulled out some neglected textile books and started with "Over the Line - Couching Rediscovered". It's part of a great series of books for textile artists.

Here's what I did last night (and this morning):

Couching *found* objects - these are sticks that I cut up.. were just laying out in the back yard and screaming to be played with! LOL

Thanks for having this.. it's a great site and I can't wait to share and see all ya'll's creations too!

very cool, I like it!

I will be doing my first project this weekend. So far I have actually READ my collage book (instead of just looking at the pictures like I usually do with my art books I buy) and learned a lot of cool history of collage that I didn't know.

Re: very cool, I like it!

LOL.. glad to hear I'm not the only one that just skims! I normally buy the book/mag and look at all the pictures and then put it away and tell myself I'll read the articles later.. sometimes I do.
