the countdown is ON!

Well, it's that time again. Just under a month til the next halifax crafters show and I'm back in the studio cracking the whip. I'm continually inspired by the lovely community that surrounds me and this means a whole ton of new design ideas are pouring out of me. Fingers crossed I can get them onto fabric in time for the show!


I'm starting with the little things. Happy stacks of happy hearts ready to be sewn.



More stacking; my new studio 'tidying' method. The studio is tidy-ish for now. Hopefully I can keep it that way.

Tis Market Season!

Starting this week you can find me at the Lunenburg Farmers Market, Thursdays 8:30 to noon at the Lunenburg Community Center.



This weekend is the Halifax Crafters Winter Carnival! It's our biggest show yet and will be chock o block full of wonderful crafty items. See the Halifax Crafters website to read interviews with some of the crafters involved with the show.



You can also find my work at Jenny Jib in Lunenburg and at the Seeds Gallery Textiles show and sale opening Monday December 6th at 5:30.

Well, what I was hoping would be endless year at the fire-hall is quickly coming to a close. My studio mates and I are working tirelessly to finish up our pieces for this upcoming show while at the same time preparing for our big move.
The show opens in less than two weeks, hope to see you there!

Still here!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've been busy raking blueberries.
My time in the Lunenburg Fire-hall is frantically coming to an end and we're all working hard while trying to soak up some summer goodness. There is a lot left to do to prepare for our final exhibition and our big move out of the studios in August.

Here's a sneak peak at some of my final prints for the show. Inspired by this year's early rhubarb harvest... yum.

Thanks to the Queen's visit to Halifax my Royal Remnants paintings are getting some love from The Coast. Grab a copy this week or check it out here.

I just got home from a long but lovely craft-filled weekend in halifax. There are long stories of reckless wildlife and treacherous weather to be told but I'll get to that another time. For now I'd like to show off my finished new pattern. It was a tricky one to figure out as it's a shifting repeat but I'm quite pleased with the end result and may have shed a small tear when I had to start cutting it up into pillow pieces.
