BORN AGAIN




















I took my very first official sewing class years ago, not counting the times I experimented on my moms old sheets and curtains. My 1st project was a bag and I kept all the scraps of fabric that were left; I have held onto them over the years. For a while I put aside many of my creative passions; then along came Yadira Laguerre, the renowned photographer and graphic artist of YL Designs and founder of Point of Creation. Through Point of Creation Yadira reminded me that creativity still lived on the inside of me, I felt like I was born again. This is the new bag that was birthed out or that re-awakening. This bag was inspired by Yadira Laguerre and is a tribute to new beginnings, it is called BORN AGAIN. It's hand made, no machines, no patterns and it was put together from all the pieces that I thought were useless, it is a reminder that Yah is able to use everything in us to create something beautiful.

  2. Fabulous! You are so very talented and that creativity will never die. We are born in His image, the Greater One abides in us. Hallelujah! It is great that you can count among your blessing a sister in Christ who encourages you. I believe you will reawaken and encourage many also.........
