LOL of course

I also sewed up some Liberty of London clothing this past month. See my shop for even more new pieces.

polka dots and florals

Polka dots and florals in double gauze cotton for a 2-3 year old lucky girl.
Do you dream that this dress was made for women too. Let's just say I am thinking about it!

sparkle hats!

I have been knitting a lot of these sparkly hats. Here are a handful of ones I have made!

Rainbow Dream Scarf

I might be both elated and depressed if someone buys this. Scarlet and I love it but, as I am trying to make money :) it is up for sale in my shop! It is so amazing!

Hi!
Long time, I know........

I have been absolutely terrible at blogging. It seems to be one of those things that has gotten harder and harder for me. This doesn't mean I haven't been making things because I have. I've been really very busy this past year.

I participated in the Bizarre Bazaar this past Sunday and was working very steadily at that after the art show. I had a successful day and was really very happy about it and all sorts of ventures and opportunities on the horizon. I've also been selling at Ma/Da ( Mother's and Daughters) in town which is an AMAZING boutique that is very well curated by Julie Petra-Briggs.

I know you probably want the eye candy and I know I never talked about all my pieces in the art show. I'll add to the New Year's goals!

Yes the photo of me from my childhood that I love!

Liberty Skirt - Élodie Bea

Print: Élodie Bea from the collection by Liberty of London Story Book listed today! This autumnal print is amazing! Size 4-5

Vertical Garden Wall

This is the finished vertical garden wall I talked about over the summer. It was displayed at the Breaking the Static pop up art gallery that I helped create with my art collective. I am pretty proud of this piece as it was the first vertical garden and I made and created a big stir of excitement. It also brought a lot of life into this dead abandoned space which we transformed successfully and beautifully into an amazing art event for our community.

The wall is now at my home but is for sale. It is 4 ' x 5 ' planted with succulents and vines and is surrounded by a brass painted frame.

A few more pieces to showcase from the show but, I think it might be time to stop blogging, take a shower and go VOTE!

bloomers- hampton wedding

New bloomers added to the shop. I love the name of the print. Hampton Wedding. Size 12-18 months

weaving: candy cane

Trying to play catch up still.
A weaving finished awhile back in red white and silver.

'Before and After the Party'

I mentioned previously that I am in an artist collective. It is called the Blue Scarf Collective.
Our inaugural event 'Breaking the Static' happened this past Friday in an abandoned Blockbuster in South Orange, NJ. There is a lot to say about the art collective and this show and I want to give it proper time so I will have to sit down and write about that more properly soon.

If you happen to follow me on Facebook which I just joined about a year ago you can learn more about us and follow us there but, I do promise to come back and talk more about it.

I thought it might be fun to share each piece I made that was selected for the show in it's own post.
So, today I am sharing "Before and After the Party'

*Sherry Beth Sacks, 'Stockholm Solo' can be seen in the background.

The show will also run one more weekend
10/28 6-10 PM
10/29-10/31 10-6
