Very smart! I didn't even think of that. That's a great way to "try it before you buy it!"

I like it as it's different & shows another use for polymer. Also, her work incorporates lots of different 'stuff' which looks like fun. I have a library copy but will buy one for my own craft book library. I like to preview books by checking them out of the library before buying especially if I have to order one over the internet & can't view it first.

@Rose: That sounds like a fabulous idea! I think I'm going to have to check out your inspiration — I'm off to find the Synergy 2 Coll. Art. Quilt. Was Laurie's book as good as it sounds?

Yesterday I picked up Laurie Mika's book for a bit of eye candy. Then today on the Polymer Clay Daily blog, I found Libby Mills & learned that she won the collaborative artists quilt put together by Laurie Mika for Synergy 2. That gave me an idea (more synergy) – I'm going to make tiles using the processes I learn here from Cindy. I may sometime put a 'quilt' together for myself using the tiles & I'll have a visual record of a process. I like the idea of some of the tiles being dimensional and some flat.

Just wanted to pop in here with a quick note to everyone that has been emailing me with questions about the "Mixed Media Mosaics" book mentioned above.

Laurie Mika (the author) and I have have been communicating off line. She promised if she comes up with any other useful info about her book to share, that she'll let me know. I'll post it here if or when she forwards something. Thanks Laurie.

There... that's my public service announcement for the day :-)

You're very welcome Bonnie! I think Laurie's ideas would work in very well with your beautiful polymer clay art! Besides, you can never have too many craft books!!

Hi Cindy:
Thanks for that review on "Mixed Media Polymer Clay Mosaics"…that book is very appealing to me. I love to use mosaics for the bases of my sculptures and I do think I could use some of her methods…off to purchase another new book!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
Bonnie
