Today I'm joining Vicki from 2 Bags Full for her 2nd Annual Blog Party. I'm sure there will be many blogs to visit, so I'm going to have a lot of fun and I'll try to get by and visit as many as I can as it is always another adventure to find more creative souls to visit and share with. I hope you will do the same:)
I'm Marilou a mixed media Artist and dabbler who loves to create with fibers, fabrics and paper and pretty much anything else that tugs at my heart. While loving to try new techniques and products I'm always going in several directions at once. I'm an active member of Roses On My Table and Group Leader of the Tag Art Swap Group. If you love to make Tags you can come visit me there or here on my Blog for other Artistic adventures. These are the my Tags I created for the current Swap "Queen Of Hearts"
Another favorite is making Paper Art Dolls for Swaps. Here are the latest of those "Winter Fairy Queens"
If you are wondering why there is a lapse in post for awhile a few months ago I had a bad fall and broke my ankle. Now that I'm starting to get on my feet more regular posting can be expected.
Above are a few things I love to create along with a year long project of making a Crazy Quilt Sampler which I usually work on during the evening while watching the TV.
If you would enjoy checking out past creations click on the link titled My Art under my header:)
Last but not least I would like to Thank Vicki for all the hard work and time put into hosting this Annual event! Big Hugs Vicki and thank you:)

I look forward to watching you CQJP 2014 progress here and on the CQJP blog. There is just nothing like relaxing with a bit of embroidery in the evenings, is there? I do the same. :)

Greetings from St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. Very nice to meet you.
I like all things creative n thrifty and I found you from the GYB party.
I don’t have a lot of blog time in for I just started blogging when I joined the blog party it was my New Year resolution. 600 entries and I am Reading my 388 blog and more to go. Whew a lot of good read and great giveaways too. My site http://overboardcreations.blogspot.com/and contact info is ovr_brd@yahoo.com I believe inspiration comes from all facets of life even knowing the great people out there with wisdom and knowledge the do's and don'ts and even the wonders of life from a personal point of view. And loving the crafting networks. I just want to comment on those paper dolls. I have got a lot of cutter files on dolls and wasn't quite sure why I like them so much. But, after visiting your site. I can see some great potential for my files now. Love the inspiration.
Thank you for sharing your creativity with us - your work is beautiful. It has been a pleasure to meet you.
