Sandra Ian: Hi Frieda,
I have just been looking at some of your work on the web.
I met you when you came to Inverness a few years ago to give a talk at the CAT group. Since then I have done my City and Guilds diploma (which I thoroughly enjoyed) and was wondering what sort of medium you prefer for photo transfer. I have just started dabbling with paper/textile collage and also ATCs. Hope to meet you again someday when you are in this part of the world
Best wishes and happy sewing

Judy Schutte: Hallo Frieda,
Ik had vandaag jou en mijn moeder op bezoek, (die hebben elkaar helemaal gevonden, echt héél leuk) maar toen vertelde je moeder dat jij van die mooie quilten maakt en ik heb net vol bewondering je site bekeken. Echt super!!
Ik vind zowel je composities als je kleurkeuze heel mooi.
groetjes Judy

dirtsa1: Hi Frieda,
After you left a comment on one of my little creations on my blog the other day i checked out your blog and now came upon your albums. I've just been viewing them for the last half hour and they are truly inspirational. I specially like your ATCs, something to aspire to. I am still so new to the world of mixed media, but viewing your work has given me lots of ideas and inspiration.

oom Piet en tante Catharina: Lieve Frieda,
Op ons gemakje hebben wij jou web-site bekeken,Via een link
op de web-site van Johan en Corry kwamen wij hier achter.Over you site zijn wij echt onder de indruk zo mooi is hij, wij hedden wel van je Ma gehoord dat je met je pitschwerk zulke hoge ogen gooit overal waar jij je laat zien, maar dat het zo prachtig was hadden wij niet gedacht, werkelijk excelent.
Ik schrijf de boodschap maar in het Nederlands dat gaat oom Piet beter af dan in het engels, spreken is geen probleem maar schrijven wel.Wij, althans tante Catrien heeft nog een zakje hele
kleine kraaltjes of knoopjes aan je Ma gegeven misschien kun je ze gebruiken voor je werk. Je moet maar eens laten weten wat je alzo gebruiken kunt en laat het ons weten, wij struinen nog al wat rommel en antiekmarkten af en vinden vaak dingen die wij zelf ook leuk vinden.
Nu Frieda de groeten aan je man en hopelijk te horens of zo iets.
Groetjes van ons, oom Pieter en tante Catrien

Fiona Brockie: Dear Frieda,
your pages are inspiring and breathtaking: I could look at them for hours on end, especially the ATCs, which I really enjoy making. I was so disappointed to miss hearing you speak at the area day in Dundee, your talks are always interesting and your quilts encourage the rest of us to try that something extra.
Bonne continuation,
Fiona

Mirjam Pet-Jacobs: Hi Frieda, I would like to congratulate you with your Best of Show at Waalre! It really is a wonderful piece. As head of the jury I will tell you what comments I, on behalf of the other jurors too, made on it:'...After some discussion we unanimously agreed that Foxfires by Frieda Oxenham from the United Kingdom had the capabilities to bear the honour of a Best of Show. We approved of the originality of the design, in combination with excellent workmanship. The maker gave her own interpretation to a self-chosen theme: the Northern Light. She got the essence out of this by means of a simple design, shiny silk and an adequate and enhancing use of hundredths of beads. A true piece of art!" Enjoy the prizes that are coming to you!
October 23, 2006 9:57AM
Mickey Betz: Freida, I am so sorry your quilt was
stolen. It is so pretty, I like it much
more than the other 4. All your work is
so beautiful....Wish I could see it in
person.

Vooral je winter pagina in je journaal
heeft mijn hart gestolen.
Is er ook maar een klein kansje dat wij ATC's kunnen ruilen samen??
Ik hoop het van harte.
Heb al div. keren met Lenna geruild en daar zijn nu ook mijn family ATCtjes.Je kan wat van mijn werkjes bekijken maar die halen het niet bij die van jou,toch wil ik zo een poging wagen.

rebecca: Dear Frieda,
I am very sorry to read of your loss and I can feel it in your description, the amount of heartache it must be for you. I hope that your quilt will return home one day. Never lose hope. You have a wonderful talent and it is refreshing to know that you are unselfish enough to want to share it with everyone who is interested. Thank you. Best wishes, Rebecca

Peggy: Hi Frieda,
I just read your post on QA about your Blue Waves quilt. I sure hope they find it for you; how heartbreaking. I have enjoyed viewing your art and your lovely home & garden. You will note that we have a few things in common, if you ever visit my webshots site...search for quiltpics. Did I notice a huge greenhouse attached to your home? I just love all your flowers. I will re-visit your albums when I can take my time. Thanks for sharing and I will keep my fingers crossed for your quilt to return home where it belongs.

virginia Phelan: How sad to loose something especially that special Quilt My thoughts are with you . I always cringe when I give a quilt to someone when I think what could happen to it. Your site is wonderful. As a former celtic store owner in the US I am most anxious to get back to the UK and now that I time to do more quilting and time to visit I want to return and attend some of the quilting events . and visit your country again.

johanna goisser: frieda!! your gallery is so full of gorgeous pieces of fabric-art, it´s impossible to choose a favorite! one that appeals very much to me is the january04 journal-quilt. maybe because it´s really cold outside today LOL! the colors make me smell the snow. --- i´m so proud to be the new owner of one of your little quilties from lennas "changing seasons"-swap!! adorable!!! --- i will surely return often to this gallery. thanks for sharing, johanna

November 3, 2005 12:16PM
Jolande: Oh Frieda, I am speechless like everybody who signed your guestbook! I am so glad I have met you through Yahoo.
I especially was impressed by the Journal Quilts 2005. I 'recognized' the 'school rapport' and I saw you have been on a Protestant school as I have, because of the ' Bijbelse Geschiedenis'. I had to smile when I saw that!
By the way: are all pictures and for instance the schoolrapport printed on fabric?
My sister has just started a patchwork workshop and she loves it! I will show her your work!!
Thanks again for sharing such beautiful work! Loved the accompanying music while peeking at your gallery!
Jolande
