Great Response to Studio Sale

Our Studio Sale on June 20th-There was an art piece for everyone at all different price ranges. Our new Market Bags were a great success. We sold multiples! We had an adorable salesperson, Barret, a new massage therapy graduate helping to write up sales. Ruth and Roselle were busy explaining the process and making people happy with their new purchases. It's always nice to sell to the local community.
On to Fisher Island! (see post below)

Spring-Summer Handpainted Shawls

Great lightweight, one of a kind, hand painted shawls. Light as a breeze to go over your spaghetti strap dress. Each shawl is painted as a 'visual picture'.

Long Kimono Art Pieces

Back to my first love of long kimonos as art pieces on the wall. Excited to again design new long kimonos in layers of handpainted sheer silk chiffon over handpainted crepe de chine or satin. Looking forward to working with galleries and interior designers and reaching out to the art world with "fiber art for the wall".
Shown here is an early piece inspired by my trip to Japan and the shibori studios.

Spring is in the Air

Spring is coming and the red breasted robin is knocking at my window. Happens every year-he thinks there is another bird and he wants to establish his territory.

We are busy designing new art pieces. Working on a kimono vest in handpainted sheer silk organza and a shorter version of our traditional kimono jacket.

Recently, I travelled to Exuma Islands off the Bahamas. Thanks to Steve and Cindy for their lovely hospitality. Amazing coral and the colors of the water in shades of turquoise and purple. This is sure to inspire my future work.

American Craft Council Baltimore Show and Home to Stowe

Just got back from 8 days of the Wholesale and Retail ACC Baltimore Show. Retail was better than my expectations. Public very supportive of the 700+ show artists. They bought glass, jewelry, pottery, furniture, art to wear, etc. The ACC Baltimore Show is a destination weekend for many.
Looking forward to following up with new store contacts.
The ACC early morning workshops were very helpful.
"Challenging" drive home on Monday through one of the major snow storms of the winter. Comforting to see the sign "Welcome to Vermont"
