Changes are a coming

So I am working away on my fall collection. And I am trying out a new supplier who uses lots of eco friendly fabrics. The only problem is picking just a few. I treated myself to lunch to help decide.

Also, I am finding longer blog posts to be hard and a little too time consuming. So I am going to switch over to keeping the posts shorter and more often. You’ll be getting more short updates regularly and I won’t feel like the blog is neglected. I think its a win win.

Workshop Time

This year at the Textile Studio we have Yoshiko Wada teaching about shibori, boro and indigo dyeing to manipulate cloth. So exciting. Above is a sample from our very first day. Hopefully more pics to come as the week goes on. And I am so excited to  launch a new animal for Canada day! More to come on that as well.

Studio Anniversary

Its been one year since I moved into my studio. So I made a little movie about it. Hope you like it!

New work in the works

Hi everyone, 

Here’s a little peak at some of my sketches for a new animal to join the moose and squirrel. I am hoping to have the beaver ready for Canada Day, as it is the national animal. I’ll keep you posted on how its going. 

In the meantime, this blog will be switching over from my purchased domain name to just the regular wordpress domain name. This saves me a few bucks and helps me with the ultimate goal of getting the blog better integrated with my actual website. I am still updating the website, these things take me a while, so its not happening right away. I am hoping for a smooth transition buth with my IT skils I am not sure that’s going to happen. So I will just say sorry in advance in case of any issues. But I will be posting regularly still so new content will at least be here. 

Have a lovely sunny week everyone!
