Upcoming!

Sorry I haven't posted for so long!  I hope everyone had a great holiday season.  My winter shows went well, now I'm working on things for Arts on the Credit on April 12 & 13, 2014.  It will be at the Waterside Inn in Port Credit. 

I'm also nominated for a MARTY Award again this year, in the Creative Community category.  There are lots of other nominees this year, all of whom are also nominated in the People's Choice category, which anyone can go vote for on the Mississauga Arts Council's website.  You can also read about the MARTYs, get tickets, and look at past winners.

Greetings!

Sorry it's been almost a month since I updated.  I've been working on adding and reorganizing my website content, gardening, cooking, watching soccer, and so on.  I've decided to add thin cord straps to my silk clutches, so I am working on those.  The MARTY Awards were handed out on May 9th, and you may remember I was nominated in the Creative Community category - I'm happy to tell you I received an honourable mention!  I also attended, and donated a silk clutch to, the Ontario Crafts Council's Maker Shaker cocktail party & silent auction fundraiser, a social media workshop, and hope to check out the Textile Museum's yardage sale this weekend. 

I have also been watching the spring birds, and have started a personal blog on that subject, so if you're interested in casual birdwatching, gardening, backyard wildlife, and such, you should follow!  Visit A Year of Birds. 

MARTY Awards

Some great talents are nominated for MARTY Awards this year, and I'm excited to be among them! I'm nominated in the Creative Community category, which is for art forms including fibre arts, spinning and weaving, tattoo art, jewellery, fashion arts, etc.  Vote for the People's Choice with your pick at the Mississauga Arts Council site Feb. 25-Apr. 1.  Awards are to be presented on May 9th.
