No more being grumpy about finding my measuring tape in a messy ball.

Uber frustrated that I went to Community Foods, my local organic grocery store looking for gum arabic, and I knew they probably did not have it. They didn’t, but I sure the heck did not expect the employee of the small, local business to tell me that I could get it on Amazon.

I make a lot of textiles colourful with block printing and marbling, but funny enough, I don’t know how to sew. But I made it a goal this year to learn, and I took a mini quilt class last week, it is coming along nicely. I’m throughly enjoying the hand appliqué process.

I darned my first pair of socks today, they’re not pretty in fact they might be a little embarrassing, but them socks don’t have holes no more.

Only a month! Woof. Mine normally lasts a year.

Me too! I also silkscreen a lot of my product tags with all the leftover inks blobs I have from making all my colour-blends.

My 5 yr old is currently obsessed with singing Cotton Eyed Joe & Barbie Girl, I don’t know how I got here.

Picture intro numero 3. I’m a printmaker, largely focusing silkscreen and relief printing. Old printing presses are my jam.

My wee picture intro part 2. I love to knit & crochet, I’m typically drawn to simple structuring in my patterns because again I love colour and want the yarn to be focus of my work.

A wee introduction of myself with pictures, I’m a maker, & really enjoy creating obnoxiously colourful marbled & silkscreened leather goods.

FYI making tiny cases for tiny tools makes me happy.
