Wow you guys, what a lovely warm welcome!! Thank you soooo much! Gees, now I'm, never gonna get off the computer and get any work done
I promise to open up the trunks this week and take some photos to share with you of mom's clothes. She'll be tickled pink! Rick (the bf) still has my transfer cord for the camera...hopefully I will see him next weekend to get it back!
Besides clothes mom saved some fabrics and some petti point work done for slippers. I promised her that I would have the one set framed for her bedroom.
Steph has nudged me to give you some links to what I do and or belong to so here we go (you'll know far more about me than you probably will care too....lol) Here we go --
These are sites where you will find me, my life and/or some of my art work:
This is where I store pictures of my mosaics and other art work (until I figure out how to build a proper website)
http://groups.msn.com/SmashingGlassMosaics
I have a webshots album with lots of pics of other projects I am working on and also include pic's around my little farm here and my bf's carnivorous plant business that he is just starting up

I was thrilled to be invited to be a resident artist (and part time writer) on this wonderful site called "The Soul Food Cafe". I can't say enough good about it. You could get lost in it for hours...days even. Loads of inspiration and support for writers, poets, artists, everyone... we have a ball making up new fantasy lives for ourselves and then we make art or write a story about it....
This is the site's homepage:
http://www.dailywriting.net
and this is the link to my artists bio page there:
http://www.dailywriting.net/FetterlyStudio.htm (appologies now because my bio far exceeds my artwork on the page...I must get my butt off the computer and back to making art for my page!!)
Lastly, I run an Arts & Crafts group on MSN called (duh) Canadian Arts & Crafts. There are just about 390 member's now from all over the world and we cover all sorts of art and craft forms. If you want to look around just hit the Join button and fill out the info and say in the little box that you are from this group and I will let you in right away. I locked the group because so much nasty and rude spam was starting to filter in.

ok, that's it, that's all (I think)
Now, I want to get back to looking around here some more...I am in such trouble being here..I love vintage stuff...back in the old days when I worked in downtown Vancouver there was a shop called "The Deluxe Junk Company"...oh man, I was in there every pay day!!!! drool, drool, drool.
Ok, I'm really gone this time...bye!
