snow day, sew day.

i returned late last night from the american craft council show, which was held this past weekend in baltimore. i always love working this show and seeing all of the new and old faces that show up. yes, i should have many more pictures filling this post, but a few of the artists that i approached about taking photos of their work turned me down, so i got a bit discouraged.

tiffany ownbey, a friend, who does papier mache sculpture using sewing patterns and other found treasures :


nicole licht, aka astulabee, who was a part of the altcraft section of the show makes irresistible soft sculptures. nicole was as sweet as could be, i was very happy to meet her and see her work in person.


and hey, why not self promote. here is a shot of our booth. "our" being claudia mills studio, where i work as a production weaver.


now that february and the a.c.c. show are said and done, it is time for me to get back to work. i unfortunately did not meet my february goals, but i had not factored in the measly 28 days that are in february or the fact that my last week of the month would be spend prepping for the a.c.c. show. today i was home because of the snow, though. and i am just a few seams away from finishing my stack of tote bags which will be posted on etsy. for now i will leave you with some teaser pictures...
