Many years ago… Eric and I traveled to France on what we call our Quasi-Honeymoon. My sister was living in Paris at the time, so we went to visit her and her husband, along with exploring the various sites and taking a few days in England to visit one of my friends. Not particularly romantic…

April 2019 Club Reveal – Sunflower
Oh, Sunflowers. You remain one of my all time favourite flowers. I love the subtlety of your colours and how yellow fades to orange and then to pink. This is what I hoped to capture this month for club. The simple play between colours. This photo was one I took many, many years ago when…
February 2019 Club Reveal – Calm
I can’t believe we’ve reached the end of the month already. Really, where has February gone? For me, it’s been a blur of working on a number of different projects, in between getting ready for Fibres West, which is happening March 22 & 23 in Cloverdale. Will I see you there? I hope so! Without…
January 2019 Club Reveal – Reflection
It’s been almost two years since I started doing a monthly carded club. I am so grateful for the support and love you have all shown me. Thank you for taking a chance and trying new things. 2019 is shaping up to be a busy year and I have so many fun surprises in store…
December 2018 Club Reveal – New Beginnings
Yikes… spinning and posting of club has become a little bit of a challenge for me as of late. There’s been so much happening and I do honestly feel like I’m constantly running from behind. I’m thrilled that for 2019, some of the club spinning will be done by Rachel of Wool N Spinning My…
October 2018 Club Reveal – Black Eyed Susan
As you’ve probably guessed by now, I gain a lot of my inspiration from the natural world around me. I’ve always dreamed of having a wonderful garden…but truth be told, my backyard is in desperate need of some love. The previous owners were amazing gardeners and I just can’t seem to keep up with what…
September 2018 Club Reveal – Oh Chocolate!
Yikes… October 17th and I’m finally getting around to posting about September Club. I’m so sorry for the delay but with Knit City prep etc for the end of September, I just didn’t have time for much spinning! I took a slight deviation this month when I was looking for photos and chose one that…
July 2018 Club Reveal – Cornflower
This month, I wanted to play with some softer colours, so I went searching through my photographs and came across this Cornflower and thought it was perfect. The soft greens, blues and purples are some of my favourites and such a great analogous colour scheme. Basic club was Wensleydale and for luxury club, I blended…
June 2018 Club Reveal – Paris at Dawn
Yikes! I’m very sorry that I’m so behind in posting the club reveals and wanted to offer a little insight as to what’s been happening lately. At the end of June, we decided to flip things upside down and move things around in our home. It means that I have a better work space and…
May 2018 Club Reveal – Majestic
There are moments when you’re outdoors and everything just falls into place… the light, timing and subject are in the perfect spot at the perfect time and you capture something beautiful. That’s the case with this month’s inspiration photo of this beautiful Bighorn Sheep. We arrived at a campsite in the Kootneys, an hour or…
