What was your inspiration?

Since I live in Juneau, Alaska, there is no end to beautiful images.

What are you most proud of?

I'm using a soldering iron to create fabric collages. This piece used scraps of more than 20 different fabrics.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

You'd need a professional fine-tipped soldering iron in order to get the details.

I found a book by a British author at JoAnn's a few years ago: Fusing Fabric: Creative Cutting, Bonding and Mark-Making with the Soldering Iron. I work on it outdoors in the summer to deal with ventilation, but find it much easier than sewing otherwise.
