Category Archives: Artists I admire One of the great things about writing a blog is you meet talented like-minded people. One of which is the one-and-only Deborah Boschert who is about to embark on a six-month journey via STITCHED! What exactly is STICHED you ask, well it’s a collection of 20 online video workshops by 20 talented fabric artists. For...

Thanks so much Robin! You’re right! STITCHED is going to be awesome. I am so thrilled to share this project and talk about all the cool stuff you can do with fabric and stitching.  I am humbled to speak to you today about a dear blog friend and fellow fabric enthusiast Candy Glendening! She’s asked me to review and write about her new DVD “Dyeing to Stitch” released just a couple of months ago by Interweave. I met her a few years ago online and have followed her work... by robin 38 comments

Would love to have a copy of this DVD…  This September, I’m going to have an amazing opportunity to work alongside an incredible artist. Patrick Dougherty, world renowned stickwork artist, is coming to Maui! I’m thrilled to have him come here and hopefully I’ll be able to help him with the instillation. Just check these out: 1. Patrick Dougherty’s “Stick Works”, 2. patrick dougherty,... by robin 2 comments

hello Robin, there’s always something interesting to look at here, and anyone who can creates something called “Catawumpus” has to be a genius! His works are amazing, thank you for sharing them with us. I love your quilt as well – colour dancing with itself

That looks totally amazing, and I love that the supplies for the project will be invasive species that should be removed anyway. Two birds with one stone! Love it.  Something that is very popular here in Hawaii is a carport. Now, we do have a garage, and we will continue to keep our cars, tools and supplies in it, but over the years we’ve collected a variety of “toys”… BIG “toys” that is, and we could use a place to store them.

I love how your home keeps evolving. Carport, too cool!  I feel the need to pause just a little… to intentionally slow down just a bit and just be. With the kids in school and their schedules getting busier, with work being done on a couple of fundraisers I’m involved with, and with all the frenzy swirling around in our world today, I cannot help... by robin 1 comment

You are welcome Robin! I see that the wiggly tree of yours that I like so much has found a home. |
I have a whole 10 yds of silk to dye as soon as company goes home. Happy holidays!
