Around the Net: Di Wells (entry 104)

Hi Ladies, today I was spending some time watching these incredible videos on the Country Channel .TV, which is an online source for videos.

Here’s an interesting video on Di Wells, she’s an amazing patchwork artist, designer and fabric dyer…enjoy the http://www.countrychannel.tv/player.php/?player=TheNewCountryChannel&ct=1&ids=297269

She has a FAB scrapbook with her designs, ideas, slips of cards, pictures etc in for her inspiration and thoughts.

Di Wells shows one of her quilts that is made out or brown paper and tissue paper, she also gives a demo on how to make the paper be soft and supple by “screwing” it up – she’s an English lady so you get a little clip of English verbiage at the same time. This is her distressing process.
