Textile Artist
I create objects, often wearable, from salvaged textiles. In a former life I wrote Reconstructing Clothes for Dummies and owned 2 local-made boutiques in SF.
Currently raising family and infiltrating a red county in Oregon.
Just spotted on the trail to my kiddo's school.

YES!

Warping always looks like ribbon candy to me.
New project of gauzy cotton and linen scarves is in the works!

I installed my first show!

I've done group shows before (one or two pieces amid others' work.) technically this is a group show, as I'm one of many gallery members. But it feels more individual than ever before.

I love this feeling. It's like I'm starting to get back in my skin again.

I'm searching for quotes to embroider into the weaving project that I'm currently working on. #RBG is 🔥

Day 7/100 #the100dayproject
Crazy weekend of kid things but I managed to get the heddles threaded.
I'm appreciating this project to make sure I spend SOME amount of time on this every day.
...getting the loom set up to weave takes just about the same amount of time as it takes to weave.

Day 5&6/100 #the100dayproject
I was offline yesterday for the #economicblackout so I've got a doubleday today.
Threading this has been a bit crazy, with 3 different warps and a bit of whimsical randomization.
Stay tuned to see how tangled, or not, this might get!

Day 4/100 of #the100dayproject
I'm adding some #blackandwhite to a white warp for this prototype. I'm going to play around with the placement to break up the symmetry.
Maybe throw in a bright streak. ❤️‍🔥

Day 3/100 #the100dayproject
I've decided to start a fresh warp for this project, requiring me to "unwarp" the warp board.

I don't work like this. I typically find a use for things, moving forward vs backwards.
But in undoing, I am moving forward with choice & free will. Unfettered

Day 1/100 #the100dayproject

My goal for these 100 days is to accomplish an idea that I've been pondering for over a year now. It's going to take a lot of time, which may be why I haven't committed to it thus far...

I'll be having my first non-group gallery show for my art pieces this April. It's nice to have a reason to spend time making the ideas that have been bouncing around in my head all these years!

This is an amazing resource!

I'm leaning into a space of creating beauty. It's what I can do amid the utter chaos.

#morningmeanderings finishing this scarf...

My son's book (my craft weight) is a "choose your own adventure" about choices and consequences.

If voters had a book like this for the 2024 election, we could have ended up with Madam President instead of the circus-elect.
