"
Dolce" is the Italian word for "sweet", and it was indeed a sweet dream to have my work featured on the lovely blog
Dolce Dreams twice this week. The first post called "
Do you Know where you are Sewing?" featured an array of talented artists who use embroidery as their medium. Much to my surprise, Nathalie of
Dolce Dreams declared my
Revolutionary Fashion series the Grande Finale!! And then to make this dolce dream even sweeter, she featured a post with more of my work yesterday in a post called
A Special Showing.

I am honoured to find my way onto her beautiful blog
Dolce Dreams, especially as she is a very talented embroiderer herself. I know because I am lucky enough to own several of her pieces. Her lovely lavender sachets get tucked into my suitcase and have traveled with me to Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Paris and Berlin. A pretty sachet with the words "
Je suis calme" sits in my lingerie drawer and is a constant reminder of her friendship. See more of her work on her lovely Etsy shop
here.

It's so lovely to see these beautiful pieces again, Ingrid, and to discover a new blog too. Thank you :) Kx
I adore these pieces - the more I see the more I fall in love with them! What a wonderful combination - the subtle toile de jouy and exquisite and intriguing embroidered figures. Are any of them available for purchase Ingrid? I would definitely be interested.
Yes Anna, I have a range of this type of work available. I have more than what is pictured. Prices range from $125 to $275 depending on the size. Shipping is extra. For more information you can email me at fashionismymuse@me.com
They are such beautiful works Ingrid....xv
Congratulations Ingrid! Your pieces are more than beautiful! The textiles you use combined with your art just amaze me. Thank you for introducing Dolce Dreams too!

How great to be featured in Dolce Dreams! You know that I think your work is great, and I have a real soft spot for your Revolutionary series. :)
Where was I this weekend??? You are far too sweet to mention "moi" Ingrid, I am very touched...But you see how much acclaim and interest bringing your art out again has brought up? I am such an admirer of all of your talents, and enjoy all of your writing...but want to see more of your art too!
Thank you for the compliment of appearing on your blog,
