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…
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…
April 2018 Club Reveal – Blackbird
I can’t believe we’re at the start of May already. Time seems to be moving at warp speed and there are days when I simply don’t seem to be able to keep up. I love that club gives me an excuse every month to play! April Club was inspired by this photo. Eric has always…
February 2018 Club Reveal – Canyon Waters
I’ve loved going through some of our old photographs to find inspiration for club. This month’s inspiration came from a trip we did as a family a couple of summers ago. I love the play of the green river running through the brown and grey of the surrounding cliffs. It’s just such a pretty contrast.…
