Lately in the studio

I finished 5 new bags since I've been back.  Here they are:
I'm almost completely out of zippers now so I must go shopping soon or put to use that annoying velcro which I haven't really made my peace with yet... Perhaps its time to come up with a new bag design?

More to come!

Back from the U.S.!


We had fun traveling through Maine, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.  I especially enjoyed seeing family and friends and finally getting to see Farm Sanctuary!  Now that I am back I feel like I am having a vacation hangover.  I could barely get myself to sew for two hours yesterday and then I ate half a pot of lazy vegan mac n cheese and re watched this terrible movie called Father of Invention that we had rented the other night.
Now I am sitting at the Barracks and thankful to be somewhere that is not home.  Soon my batteries will be recharged and I'll start cranking out more product.
Tomorrow I have a meeting with a very talented musician in Fredericton who I'm hoping to collaborate with and make a music video!  More details to come :)

P.S. Check out Farm Sanctuary:
http://www.farmsanctuary.org/
I hear people say all the time "I could never go vegan" but if you are interested in even just eating more veggies I highly suggest getting familiar with motivators through the Farm Sanctuary website.  They have a lot of great information for omnivores and vegetarians alike.  If you are blissfully ignorant about where your McDonald's happy meal comes from and wish to remain so do not visit the site.
