Dragonflies are a symbol of change, of bringing light to a situation to help gain perspective.
Emily, an artist and baker, I bellydance with, gave me this dragonfly fabric. Somehow, with all the potholders I’ve made, it’s the first time I really took advantage of the diamond-shaped design that is natural to potholder hung from their corners.
Once I started making them, I couldn’t stop.
Every once in a while, a dragonfly will come into my studio when I have my door open in the summer. I always take it as a sign that it’s time to do something different with my art. Even if it doesn’t happen that day, I know a change will come soon.
My Dragonfly Potholders are $17 each. Shipping is $5 no matter how many you buy. You can see them all close up and buy them in my Etsy Shop, fullmoonfiberart. Just click here to get there or on the Shop Etsy button below.
You can always get to my Etsy Shop by clicking on the Etsy buttons on the menu at the top or bottom of my blog. Even if temporarily run out of potholders I always have some of my art for sale in my Etsy Shop, and some of Jon’s photographs.
Maria, your potholders are all beautiful. I think you have struck a little gold mine: they are affordable, practical, useable, washable, gorgeous and let you use your creativity in fairly short order. Love them!
My potholders have sustained me Fran. They are my staple.
