Texture and Design

It's everywhere

It's what I surround myself with

It's something I can never get enough of
I saw a lovely idea where someone who could actually crochet did so over Rocks. Well, I can't crochet but I loved the look it gave the rocks and it reminded me of the way I cut out steel. As always I was drawn to the contrast of these delicate and hard surfaces, just like my shovel art.
Did you know that the doilies make the most beautiful patterns when you spray paint over them onto something else. I use them quite often in my Art.
Take something OLD and make it NEW again
Thanks everyone for dropping in to view a small piece of me and my colorful and rusty world.

Love your work, love your description of who you are. I'd like to follow your blog but there don't appear to be a link. So, I'll save you as a favorite and check back.
Oops, please read "doesn't" where I typed the word don't. :D

SZQ - what a wild idea - this post made me smile a lot - covering rocks with doilies - puts a whole new angle on how rocks are tied with rope in Japan to mean don't go down this path. I wonder what a doilie clad rock in a garden might mean. Go well. B
Just loving the creative work you do!
Dear SSQ-how utterly brilliant!! I also love crochet...anything, really. Something about their beauty. I love them around the rocks...what a contrast.
Take someone old and make it new??? Me...feeling old but am trying to become new:) xxx
P.S. hope you are feeling a little better about little love grandbaby. Sending you tons of hugs.
Rocks covered in crochet is proof that something can grow on you because when I first saw the idea I thought it was anything but wonderful where as now I think they look wonderful. A touch of elegance on the great outdoors. I like how you wrapped doilies around the rocks, what do they look like on the back? Did you stitch them into place?
WoooHooo! I have a stash of Grandmother's doilies. Texture is my love too. xoxo Terah
