Hi everyone!!! I am just thrilled beyond words that we now have followers!! Dang...i am just so darn excited- i seriously can't even think. I am so excited.

Mom's Fabric Bowls

These are made by Rosalyn (Rare Raggz). Fabric
bowls are made of heavy interfacing, fabric pieces
and then are top-stitched with colorful threads.
Embellishments may include: glass beads, clay tiles,
3-D flowers, charms and or trinkets.

This bowl is $8.00 and roughly measures
2 1/2"- 3" deep and 4-41/2" in diameter.
This would be perfect to hold yummy
jelly beans!!! :) Please e-mail me at jlsparklz@comcast.net if interested. Thank you!

"Sisters"- this one if for you Ness! It's almost done...I promise!

This painting is for one of my sisters (Vanessa). It represents my lil sis Mandi, myself and Ness. I love my sisters. Need to do another one with my brother (Joel) in it- bet he'd love that-ha! It's painted on canvas ready to hang on the wall. I used acrylic paint, marker and paper for the skirts. I will pour beez wax on the dresses- hope she likes it!

Today....I am painting!!!

This is a pic of my mom and dad. My mom wrote a blog entry- hope you enjoy.
thank you-

Hello to Everyone!

Welcome to our"spot". Jodi and I have had a passion for creating for sometime. There is something about taking a piece of fabric and cutting it up and then sewing it back together that satisfies the heart.

I enjoy all mixed media. My mother, Bea is a professional quilter/artist and my father, Camilo is a professional artist and silversmith, so it is no wonder that I am so amazed and so curious about all media. Because of this I can't decide on which media to create in....so when in doubt, try it all!!!

Thank you Jodi (my partner and daughter) and Matt (my grandson) for starting this new journey for us. Without Matt the technology piece would not be happening. Without Jodi this whole idea would not have materialized. Without the support of my husband, Joseph and our other children, Joel, Vanessa and Amanda, there would be no reason to create; they are infact my greatest creations!

I hope you enjoy your journey with us. Our creations come from the heart; a piece at a time...Beauty from the inside out!
