Studio FUN

A fun and inspirational event next weekend Textile Center.
I saw my handwoven ladybug 🐞 joined the pollinator garden!!

Fiber Art for All: Growing Community • Feb 20+21 Featuring a Makers Market with 25 local artists, hands-on demos with our staff and teaching artists, coffee, music, a scavenger hunt, and more, it’s a chance to make connections and find inspiration during Minnesota’s coldest and darkest season!

I worked with the Montessori Junior High School students last six weeks.
It was nice to see some of their work in the main lobby on the wall.
Thank you for having me at your school to introduce SAORI Weaving. I hope you remember this experience and you created such a beautiful pieces!!

Thank you for inviting me back for the Creativity Festival and the CreativeCon. I worked with about 200 students grade 3-8 last 3 days introducing Bengala Mud Dye.
I was able to forget what’s happening outside when I was teaching. I felt a lot of positive energies from them. They were all creative and created beautiful dyed handkerchiefs/bandannas.
These kids looked so proud of themselves behind their work.

I was a Santa Claus this afternoon bringing SAORI looms to a house. What a 8-year-old boy asked his parents for Christmas present was to weave again!!
When I received the email from his mother on Dec. 1, I was super excited! My heart melted.
He wove with his parents and his grandparents at their house.
I really felt like being a Santa Claus. I brought joy to him!!
He wanted to make his piece "simple, but complicated" and he did it!!
Merry Christmas!!
