I am all fired up and inspired by Leah Piken Kolidas' challenge for September. Creating with history as the theme. So, I have already posted a tutorial on how to make a depression/war-era trivet. I have also created a collage using photos of my grandmother as a young woman in the 20's. Here is the result with details. Enjoy!

I am trying to build my art around the three things I like: Drawing and painting, sewing and all thing vintage. Mainly this is a paper collage with photo transfers on to cloth as well as the addition of vintage laces. The ground is thick hand made paper with a deckle edge. I really enjoyed putting this together. It started as one thing some sort of grid collage and it evolved into this. Enjoy!
gorgeous work!! I love the way you combined all the elements.
