Jamani Sue named by Jody even before she had her completed. Sue is for her dear friend, who spun the wool to be used as dreadlocks for the hair of this magnificent pillar doll.. Jamani is Swahili translated in English for friend... She had been in the making for a short while..so it was nice to see her finally in her "Place of Honor" by Jody's large picture window... Of course Jody used African type fabric...and all the little details of bone beads etc. just add to her...The Ol' Blogger
We are a group of women of different personalities and ages who blend together to make for an interesting and fun group. Our group is dedicated to creating art using various textiles and other mediums. Our interests include sewing, knitting, quilting, doll making, purse making, felting, beading, jewelry making, stained glass, glass blowing, glass fusing, mosaics, and altered books. We share our ideas and our time, to create items that are unusual, traditional and fun. Our fun meter is more important than our gas meter. We fill it at least once a month during our monthly meeting where we have show and tell to show projects we've completed, talk about new projects and share ideas. And the food!! As textile artists we are such lucky people. We find pleasure in simple things; the colors of hand-dyed fabrics, a spool of lustrous thread—we almost hyperventilate when we go through the door of a bead store! How fortunate we are to have passion to create and to achieve such satisfaction in what we do.
