*in the ply* = the secret to interesting, strong and unique yarn is all about how it is plied (in my opinion)

November brings a LOT of grey (or is it gray) days here in Ottawa. So, I'm always looking for ways to not let it get me down.

My best hack?

Make something.

I'll teach you.

All my best projects (think weaving, crocheting, stitching) are inside this course. Completely self-paced. Yours forever.

So grab it now while it’s on sale at 50% off. And get to them whenever you want.

Enroll before November 26th to get a sweet deal that will carry you through the long winter ahead. I'm here for you.

I believe that things end up in front of us exactly when they are supposed to.

Like this post.

As you sit and eat some lunch, you might be hoping for a little bright spot in your day.

Here it is.

I have just a few spots left in my circular weaving workshop tonight. One of them has your name on it.

You will enjoy the thought I have put into this workshop. When I design and offer a workshop, I think about all the little details that will create an experience that is worthy of your time and money. For tonight's circular weaving workshop, I will be delighting everyone that comes with a number of little details. Like, the yarn you will be using.

Yes, I spun (on my spinning wheel, old school) a lot of the yarn you will be using for tonight's workshop. It is beautiful, soft, luxurious and ready for you to use in the weaving you will be proudly hanging on your wall tomorrow.

In the kits for tonight's workshop, there is absolutely gorgeous handspun merino yarn (like this), premium warp thread, macrame cord, roving, sari silk, textured art yarns and more.

I know that this is last minute, but sometimes that is the BEST way for things to happen.

If you have read to this point AND happen to be in Ottawa, join me tonight!

Finished and hung! These two commissioned by my sweet brother. I was so proud to bring them with me on my recent trip to to hang them in their forever home. I will never tire of creating SK landscape tapestries with 100% of my own handspun yarns.

If you’re looking for the most beautiful and unique version of the landscape you see out your window (or the one you dream of), get in touch. I’d love to work with you!

Launching into my next commission. A hint of what this one will look like hangs in the background of this photo. Can you guess what it will be?

Any guesses?

Finished! These 2 are my favourite weavings so far! They are very different from one another but both inspired very much from the big skies, rolling canola fields and natural beauty that is

I made every metre of yarn for these projects on my spinning wheel

Now, on to woven landscapes of some of my other favourite places in the world. Stay tuned!

02/22/2022

Join me on March 23rd as I share how curiosity and courage helped me finally log out of my corporate inbox and leap into the creative unknown of running my own business. I will share how my fibre journey opened my eyes and heart to ‘doing it scared’ and why the story of so much of my fibre art is truly the story of unfinished things. By the end of this talk, I hope you will feel inspired to get off your computer and go make something!

Join my talk March 23! I’d love to see you there. Link to register in bio.

A little peek at some of my new work. Not quite there yet but I like where it’s going.

Good Monday morning to ya. I couldn’t help snapping a photo of my sleeping Zadie cat this morning. I wish I could just curl up on a blanket and go back to sleep, too! Anyone else got that sleepy feeling today?
