I've seen, probably on sewing with Nancy, awhile back, doing small clusters covered with tulle and sewed down with deco stitching onto sweatshirts....and bling could be added on top of....one of those things one watches and thinks "hmm, I have to try that", but never does......

I love this idea/look; took a purse class long time ago and this is sort of what we did (think it her last name was Ghee). I loved this process so much, that I came home and did pillows which I still use. I love this idea, and the couching was so much fun.

I am amazed at the imaginations of people and the products they find to do exactly what they want to do. I probably will never do this technique but I love the discussion. My guild had a fiber artist as speaker last Friday and I loved how she talked about how she did the things she did. As I say, fascinating. I am so glad I was there. I will look forward to these confetti creations.

I finished the ring around my La Pass at 2.30 am this morning lol. I just get so excited with a new project, it's like getting a new toy, when I was a kid.
I will start something with the confetti after I do another block of the Pass as they take so much time and will defiantly need a break from it..

Love this idea--have used it to make fabric for small quilts and wall hangings.

(Use the too small stuff to add to home made paper. It is really pretty added in.)
