What's New

 

Be sure to check out my 2008 vending schedule for complete information on where you can see – and touch – my fabric (which is the best way!)

 

New Items

New Texture Plates

New Texture Plates

I'm really excited about the myriad of possibilties offered by these unmounted rubber stamps. The deep etching makes very detailed designs possible. The squares can be cut out and used to create delightful quilt blocks (insert "one quilt block" pix). Overall rubbings are very versatile, and can be used in conjunction with other rubbings or stenciling. Click here for project ideas and instructions.

Morning Glory sample SPECIAL

- insert Morning Glory sample (from texture plate page)

This sample is one with a light rubbing over the surface of the Swirl Texture Plate, followed by stenciling with my Morning glory stencil. Save $5.00 by purchasing both the plate and the stencil.

New Handmade Artist Buttons

New Buttons

A special button can turn an "ok" project into fabulous. The buttons are individually hand made using resin, with floating particles of fibers, wires, and foils. No two buttons will ever be exactly alike, much in the same way that hand dyed fabrics feature subtle variations in how the color flows over the surface.

New Stencil Designs Available

Special Pricing:  Stencils are always 10% off on the website.

New Stencils Morning Glory Stencil Fish and Fronds stencil Sunflower stencil Gingko stencil

I'm very excited about my new stencil designs. One of my favorite techniques is to use post-it notes to mask off sections of the stencils to produce new shapes. For example, see some of the shapes that can be produced from a ginkgo leaf (below).

New Instructional DVD



Run time of 1 hr, 13 minutes
$29.95

I'm very pleased to introduce my new DVD, "Paintstik Inspirations with Laura Murray". It represents my learnings acquired during the last three years of working extensively with this marvelous, versatile product.

For many of us, seeing a live demonstration is the best way to learn. For those who would like to take a paintstik class, the DVD brings the class to you, whenever your schedule permits. The DVD is a great companion to the "Paintstiks on Fabric" book by Shelly Stokes because it allows you to both see and hear the basic information, plus get inspired by lots of additional application and project ideas.

As a bonus, foil demonstrations are included for those who would like to integrate paintstik applications with foil.

New Garment Pattern

From Brensan Studios, the San Miguel Jacket is a flattering pattern, featuring piecing directions for the design shown in my sample. The decorative details are a great way to use small amounts of special fabrics to create a garment for all occasions. My sample is done in overdyed kimono fabrics.
