I enjoyed seeing your Door, and QUilt art pieces on Saturday in Guelph! But mostly I was inspired by your east coast pieces as I am going on a family vacation with my family to Quebec city, PEI, Nova Scotia, etc. and I am going to enjoy using my new camera to capture inspiration as well!

How long is your work going to be at the Greenwood Quiltery? I will definately need to visit the shop and your exhibit...It's not too far from St. Jacobs. I want to step into doing fibre art full time upon retiring from teaching as well and I am impressed with your work.

Hey Donna,
I'm off to Greenwood on Saturday to see your display in the gallery. Heather van Riesen and a couple of other friends are going with me. We're looking forward to being inspired by you as always!

We're also taking in Lorriane Roy's exhibit at the Carnegie Gallery in Dundas. It should be a wonderfully inspiring day!

Linda ;-)

My Husband has an Aunt and Uncle in Stratford, Ontario so we will get to visit your wonderful country when our children are old enough to appreciate it. I think the Scots and Canadians have a natural affinity don't they : )

Aha!...So I'm not cheating when I run the machine round the edge of something for want of an over locker!
I've read about Dales workshops. One day I will do one. At the moment my crafting time is pretty limited as I have children of 3 and 10 years old. I love experimenting with new ideas but mostly I have to get on and fulfill orders and stock shops. Not complaining though. All creative time is good time : )

Great! I'll get that made ASAP and email you a pic when it's done : )
It's always very exciting and a bit nerve wracking making something for a fellow fibre friend. It's a great privilege though : ) Thank you.
