LemonPeppo Art
Address
My artful eye was born in the vacant wooded prairie lots in the wild burbs of Chicago. I learned to sew young, making tiny primitive clothes for my troll dolls with fabric scraps from my mother’s projects. Sewing was always my go-to when time allowed.
Most of my useful originals were born from a need to invent something that was not available on the market. Over thirty years ago, I made my first of many quilted bibs for a messy human. Later, I created wash and dryable dust mop covers and reusable cotton boy doggie diapers, a necessity for the little alpha male markers in the house.
Now, I create textile art with raw raveled edges in many colors and textures. No scrap too small is my daily mantra, evident by my collection of old and new cotton, linen, wool, lace, beads, threads, yarn, and all types of art supplies. I also draw, paint, knit, crochet, quilt, sculpt, deconstruct, and reconstruct. Things get Boho and quirky, which comes in handy when crafting whimsical rag doll folk art beings, cloth villages, wiggly trees, wooly gardens, and rag-shaggy waterholes.
Now and then, I de-stash my hoards – not often. I appreciate the elderlies.
Thank you for reading, and for your trust and support. You allow me to continue to do what I love and share it with you.
