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 …

  • The first day of March! Whew, there is so much happening in March - #mendmarch #NationalCraftMonth #nationalwomensmonth and so much more. I probably won't cover them all equally, but I do want to show up for Mend March this year. If you haven't heard of it, check out the hashtag. Mend March celebrates the mending of clothes and all the benefits that comes with that. Today is the first day and the prompt is "Hello". I figured I haven't shown a picture of myself or done self-introduction for quite a while. So I thought I'd say 5 things about me. ⁣ 1. I am a mixed media fiber artist. Journals, papermaking, sewing, embroidery, mending and so much more. ⁣ 2. I love my collected materials, but am trying to let go and use them. The photo shows me clutching a bottle of vintage mother of pearl buttons. ⁣ 3. I have been intrigued by visible mending and am eager to try to expand my skills. ⁣ 4. I am fond of the color pink. (That is an understatement.)⁣ 5. I love a good cup of tea. Preferably milk tea with sugar. With a piece of cake or perhaps a scone. ⁣ Thank you to Kate Sekules (@visiblemend) for this challenge and so much inspiration. I just finished her book on mending and found it informative, inspiring and, sometimes, hilarious. She has quite a way with words. #selfie #selfintroduction #letmeintroducemyself #mending #fixingholes #visiblemending #makeitwork #renew #takecareof #embellish #mendmarch2021
  • Today is the last day of National Embroidery Month. Mashing up embroidery and other forms of art has been exhilarating. Here you see a digital piece I created by layering other digital pieces I have done including embroidery. I'm enjoying this too. My view on the way to organize visual elements has stretched this month and I am grateful. #nationalembroiderymonth #embroidery #digitalart #digitalembroidery #mixedmedia #embroideryart #embroidered #roses #mashup #digital #digitalcollage #collageart #collageartist #collage #remix
  • Layer on layer on layer on layer. Just the way I like it. There was the moon so why not add stars I asked myself. We are almost one time around the moon again. What will March hold? #nationalembroiderymonth #embroidery #mixedmedia #needlework #mixedmediaart #stitching #stitch #embroideryart #handembroidery #stitchbystitch #paperandstitch #collage
  • One of my favorite stitched paper bits so far as it reminds me of an alternate color palette forsythia. I'm ready for spring. The wind is blowing that "spring is coming" way, the birds are feeling it and our rabbit is hopping about and shaking his ears in a distinctly spring-ish fashion. (He is also shedding like crazy!) This one was also fun because of the cyclical nature of creating it. The paper had been printed and collaged. Stitching was added. Then paint pen added on top. And why not add a little more stitching? May the season's breezes be gentle on you. #nationalembroiderymonth #embroidery #embroideryonpaper #paperandstitch #stitching #stitch #embroidered #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #spring #springfeeling
  • I've had a lot of comments and inquiries about the monoprinting with embroidered texture sheets I've done this month. I decided to change my YouTube video settings to public so that you can see it in action. As always, Madeleine Ooka @chasingtheroserabbit did a great job filming and editing this video. You can get to my YouTube channel through the links in my bio. #nationalembroiderymonth #embroidery #embroidered #handembroidery #modernembroidery #embroideryart #monoprinting #gelliprint #gelliprinting #embroideryandpaper #thisishowIroll #YouTube #video
  • This page shows me the possibility of paper and thread. Vibrant, textural, funky, bright sunshine. I need this some days. Some days the grey sky makes me fight back with color, joy and exuberance. This is what art can do. Keep me thinking, exploring, and trekking on. #nationalembroiderymonth #artjournaling #collage #handmadecollage #collageartwork #papercollage #needlework #コラージュ #embroidery #collageartist #stitching #stitch #stitchbystitch #makersgonnamake #paperandthread #刺繍
