August 9, 2011 at 7:04 pmThanks for sharing the sites with us and the free tutorial. I too love fibers and ribbon. I am trying to incorporate them in my designs as well but I am sometimes at a loss on how to go about it…now that I have some good sites where I can purchase the fibers and ribbon, maybe I'll get more creative and will start adding them to my creations.
