I am part of an Altered Book Round Robin. It's the only exchange(swap) I am doing these days as I just don't have enough time. Duh. Anyway, it's an activity of the Collage Club group of which I am a member.........a bunch of incredibly uplifting and creative souls who meet monthly here in St. Louis.
This time I got Julie's book, Favorite Quotes. I was kind of blank on what to do but had this uncontrollable urge to do some weaving. Of course I have never done a weaving before but I tried to channel my friend Nancy, tee, hee, hee. I got some paste paper scraps and cut strips and just started. I wove some burlap stuff and a wild looking yarn in. And then was lucky enough to find a very cool quote about weaving.
I have been doing so much painting and collage lately this felt incredibly therapeutic. So thanks Julie for the opportunity! Hope you enjoy it.
Love the weaving, MaryBeth! And I'm impressed, too, that you found time to be involved in a swap! It's cool that you are able to meet with the women involved...

This was fun, wasn't it? It is also so beautiful. Can't wait to get a close look.
