Ficklesticks toting new fabric jewelry, kits, to Oklahoma City (almost). Peace signs, flowers to wear and hang, Tiffany copies, amoebas, and Ficklesticks squiggles.

 New kits for Oklahoma City. Fickle Flower Fence will make the lovely pink fickle flower fence wall art that was featured in Cloth Paper Scissors last spring. Thirteen different green stem fabrics, and thriteen different lovely pink prints, with fabric for the pickets and the flower centers--and the ficklewireI 

THINK SPRING!

 

THE SILVER BULLET! It includes 20 pieces of 36" Ficklestick making wire and enough fabric strips from my PRIVATE RESERVE to make 60 small posies, or 10 bracelets, 10 big peace signs, or 10dragonflies or 10 daisies. Filled with my stylized prints, geometrics and sparkly fabrics, hand-selected  from the very bins I work from (See Studios Magazine last summer for the pic!) All packed in a slick little slip into your shopping bag cylinder. 



AWW! Candy cane hearts on black licorice. Actually rubber tubing. All reds, or multi color !

 Nothing says spring like some new pretty flower necklaces.  I have no idea why this type turned blue, either. To match the necklace, perhaps? 

I liked em so much I made a few.

I usually make these all in red and green, like real cherries, but sold one like this right off my neck in North Little Rock one day...

While we are thinking about spring, we might as well think about peace some more. These are long pendants on tie dyed elastic and black rubber tubing.

And these I put on some cheap beads I found in the teeny bopper jewelry dept at WalMart. I think mardi gras beads would work too!  

OK, these keys are a little weird. I am planning to put them on some yard-long beaded ball chain from the hardware store when it comes in tomorrow. I figured if Tiffany's could sell a gold key on a chain for a couple thousand dollars, well maybe I could too-- Fabric and wire on nickel plated chain for about $20 anyway!..I guess we will see!If I turned them the other way round, they could almost pass for long-necked birds. Oh those ficklesticks, ALWAYS changing their minds.

These kind of look like amoebas, don't they? All I know is they have been multiplying in my work space(s) 
   I do like the organic shape of em and the idea of a really weird and colorful pendant. I am finding that silk and metallics really energize them. That hardware store chain really sets them off! Here's a clloseup
 BIG ONES
   
Small ones 
  And squiggle neckleaces. No, Ficklesticks symbols of prosperity, health and happiness, all in one!

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

While organizing my sewing area, I came across the advertising postcard for FFE Ficklesticks you gave me when I bought supplies at the 08 Houston Internat'l Quilt Festival and thought - WOW - I've got to do this! I love things that can be looked at (and reshaped) to be different things - clouds, mud puddles, creatively splattered pancake batter, paint splotches... so I know this is the beginning of something wildly adventurous! I made a vow to conquer my UFO mountains but I intuitively sense the great therapeutic potential of Ficklesticks beckoning from my stash. Thank you for your trail-blazing work. I really mean it (and I really need it.)

How did the Peace March during the Vietnam War impact our country economically?
Who were important in the peace march? Why was it important that veterans spoke at the capital who actually came from the Vietnam War? How did it impact the country short term and long term? Where and when did the peace march take place?

She is really a great illustrator, and of course she created for herself a great site too. Her designs are just so real and reliable, that's great!

Life is not divided into semesters. You don"t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own
