My exhibit is up at the Jacob Edwards Library in Southbridge, Massachusetts until the end of the month.   The opening night was great fun. Below you can see my slideshow and click the link for the library’s photos on flickr. Regeneration opening night Jacob Edwards Library photos Along with the show I am offering …

  • What is a fabric hoarder to do? After seeing requests for hand sewn face masks I made these to donate to a medical organization that is dear to me. There are more in the works for another local organization. I used the pattern on the Deaconess Hospital website. @deaconesshealth The video was helpful. If you want to make some there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube in a variety of languages. Not sure where to donate? Call your local hospital and ask if they are accepting them. #diyfacemask #betterthanbandannas #supportdoctorsandnurses #handmadewithlove #wereinthistogether #dowhatyoucan

  • This design has been on my blotter paper for quite some time. I finally transferred it to a stamp and carved it. Problem was I could find my carving tools so I made do with a n Xacto knife. Think I will be stamping it everywhere. #handcarved #handmadestamp #stamp #printing #madeitmyself

  • In the interest of actually being able to make things, I have been cleaning, purging and rearranging. In the process many emerging projects have been unearthed, such as this stack of tiny journals. The top one was made from the uppers of a favorite pair of shoes when they wore out. The bamboo leaves played along in a #gelliprinting adventure. #onmydesk #studioclean #tinyjournals #mixedmedia #handmade #makersgonnamake #usewhatyouhave

  • Back at @towerhillbg today. Collage of bits of my hand printed fabric stitched together for something special. Not mending per se, but using up bits and pieces. #towerhillbg #fabriccollage #handstitching #slowstitch #handprintedfabric #handmade

  • Thought I had posted a set of the sweater in my last post so trying to make up for it. Here are the front and elbows of the sweater. #mendmarch #mending #visiblemending #takecareofwhatyouhave #stitchbystitch

  • Thanks to @boothjb4757 I found out about #mendmarch hosted by @visiblemend today. Just the ticket. Starting late I will choose day 3 - holes. This sweater has been around since 5th grade or so. I love cotton sweaters because they expand. My adult daughter is still wearing it which meant there were a few holes. Mended the holes for strength and added felt patches to them to echo the design on the front. Both neckline and wrist were frayed so blanket stitch to the rescue. Looking forward to many more transformations. #visiblemending #mending #sweaterlove #takingcareofwhatwehave #refashion

  • Favorite tools from last night’s gelli printing session. An educational toy used for mastering sewing, my favorite bamboo trivet after it broke and a sprig from the bamboo plant we got for Tanabata last year. Loved the prints too. #monoprinting #gelliprinting #gelliarts #markmaking #bamboo #artisttools #makeuseofwhatyouhave

  • Blind contour drawings of camellias on brown paper bag, colored with @prismacolor markers, cut out and pasted to gelli printed backgrounds. Another fun day at @towerhillbg #towerhillbg #collage #blindcontour #blindcontourdrawing #botanicalillustration #botanicalgardens #floral

  • Was stitching a cuff today and couldn’t find the right button for it. Did what anyone would do in my situation - I took a plain button and embellished it. Love the way it turned out. #stitching #stitch #runningstitch #button #embellishment #beads

  • The way the leaves curve fascinates me. Another day at @towerhillbg observing plants, interpreting them as I like and strengthening my skills of observation. The wind was wild, but inside it was lovely. #towerhillbg #collage #moodbook #makingartinpublic #plants
