The Lunatic Fringe

Sometimes life is your art. Sometimes art is your life. But always we are, by our human nature artists. The structure we give our lives is as vital a life form as the structure we give the many ways we create.
The Lunatic Fringe is where we recognize and celebrate the wonderful art explored just in our humanity. We believe in all art. We believe it to all be "fringy" from the odd corners of our souls and our worlds.
We welcome guest blogs from all kinds of artists from fiber artists, quilters, formal arts, odd doodlers and sculpters, and those artists who sculpt in the way their lives are built. It's part of our human nature. Are you one of the Lunatic Fringe?

    I can't enter your contest because I live in Canada and I don't have a blog but I just wanted to tell you how much I love your work. Before Thread Magic was originally published I saw an ad in a magazine and I pre-ordered a copy before it was published. I was the envy of the sewing shop when it came in and I showed it to them :)

    I've decided if you have an American address or if you're in Canada, we'll put you into the contest. The whole border thing seems silly
    anyway.
