Susan Adamek replied to Robbin Neff's discussion 12.5" Embellished Quilt Block Swap"You are so brave to do this and be moving at the same time. I too, have moved alot....38 times....not as much as you have, but enough! I shall be here forever, because I remarried a few years ago and husband won't budge. …"
Susan Adamek replied to Robbin Neff's discussion 12.5" Embellished Quilt Block Swap"Hi Robin....
Sign me up for the Sept. quilt swatch and also the Nov one. It is nice to get some action here. You are one busy lady, and I applaud you for going forth at this time.
I am not good in using technology, so hope I can muddle…"
Robbin Neff left a comment for Susan Adamek"Thank you Susan. I plan on reaching new heights with each project. I just received an embroidery machine, which did not explain how the images go from the computer to the machine yet, and it will yield lots of growth. I'm…"

Susan Adamek left a comment for Robbin Neff" Robin, your pics are magnificent! Your use of different textiles is so very interesting that words do not do it justice. Yes, this group comes and go, as do I. Unfortunately, I am not a computer fan, would rather be in the…"

Mary Schwarzenberger left a comment for Susan Adamek"One of the best things about wearing these jackets is talking to people I wouldn't normally have conversations with! It's also fun watching people look at my jackets!"
Susan Adamek left a comment for Mary Schwarzenberger"Thanks! The jackets are really very nice and I would bet that whenever one wears one that the comments are non-stop. In other words, if you feel like you want to be anonymous that day don't wear Mary's jacket! How about…"
Mary Schwarzenberger left a comment for Susan Adamek"Thanks for the comments! My jackets do start with sweatshirts. They really are such fun to make! Your idea about the capes is a good one,too."
Susan Adamek left a comment for Mary Schwarzenberger"I love everything! So much texture, color and joy! Do your jackets have a sweatshirt base...hard to tell with pictures? Also your little capes remind me of a project I always think I am going to do...oh sure! Make…"
Susan Adamek left a comment for Beth Rautenbach"Etsy is totally American, but I think others can join...I am not certain though. It was started by a gal who wanted to sell her art and wasn't having success. She now employs 126 people. But my question is...how much art is…"

Thanks for the explanation of "Etsy" Is it an American concept?"
Susan Adamek left a comment for Beth Rautenbach"Thanks Beth for your comments on my "Broken Babies" piece. You "got it!" This is supposed to appeare serene until you look more closely, then it hits you.
Did anyone explain Etsy to you? I will give a very brief…"

Thank you Susan. I plan on reaching new heights with each project. I just received an embroidery machine, which did not explain how the images go from the computer to the machine yet, and it will yield lots of growth. I'm afraid to touch it, and am mostly working on handwork for the time being. As a disabled vet, cronic pain, this is a good thing. Very relaxing.
Your take on art is great. The Vermeer piece is wonderful. I like your funky chicks and the crazy quilting stuff. You do such a wonderful variety of pieces. I saw the little girl in a magazine. Your pictures do her better justice.

Thank you for the comments. Being in the studio is my preference also. Not today. though. There are so many things to create, and boy the piles of supplies waiting to be used. I really should get busier. Tomorrow.
This site is a boon to me. There are few fiber artists where I live. I have yet to meet any. I see evidence of their works, but apparantly they are few and far between here. The computer, this site, and FAMM are bringing like minds together. Sharing ideas is one fun way to see some variations along the path of creativity. We cannot do it all, so why not share? There is room for one and all in the creativity pool. In this case, I am a pool (water) nymph, lol.
Your works are as eclectic and fun as my own. We just cannot get enough, can we. Do you hand embroider?

Hi Susan
I have been very busy with all sorts of other things this year, and have neglected my contacts. I agree with your comments about etsy and other such things. I found that I was spending so much time commenting on other peoples' work and browsing the internet that I was becoming completely overwhelmed and just stopped.

- Hi Susan, to answer your question - Pumula is on the lower South Coast of Kwazulu-Natal in South Africa. It is a beautiful, sub-tropical region and my garden is full of indigenous tress, birds, monkeys and tree-hyrax.
