For the Fabric palette I used the Brannock-Patek plaids, and several of McCloskey's Staples, and anything else that looked folksy. I changed the colorway on the darkest brown to get the black wool-look for the background.  The "rug" was drawn in
PatchDraw  and I set it on Layer 1. The pennies and flowers were added on Layer 2.
What fun!  I'll add more as time allows.....I guess I have to work sometime.......sigh.
 


I think I have almost all of Jill Kemp's books.  This angel is after her style from the pattern book, " Wondrous Christmas".  I just got my Stash CD when I created this -- I really had fun with the new plaids!  I feel like it's Christmas already, and it's only November 2.
 


Here's a round penny rug.  I used the Wreathmaker this time. I think I might
actually make this one! It sure would look nice on an antique table.
