For some time now I have been pondering on the idea to make something that would resemble a real fabric design.  When I was presented with the idea to make a gift for the baby shower of my son’s teacher I wasn’t sure where to start. Then I found out she likes a particular Potter…

No, I’m not sad nor depressed, relax! 🙂 I’m talking about feeling blue as a color, with every fiber of your body. I have never liked blue before, as a matter of fact I have been avoiding working with it. Recently I can’t help but notice that my work is gravitating towards this color.  I…

I can’t talk about Japan and pretend what happened didn’t happen. And I won’t. I  won’t pretend it didn’t affect me either. I have…
