Author for Piecework Article!

I am excited to announce that I pitched an idea for an article to PieceWork magazine, and I was accepted to write the article!  I'm still pinching myself.  Thank you, Long Thread Media and PieceWork Magazine!

For those of you who many be unfamiliar with the magazine, here is a summary of what it is all about:

PieceWork is the only magazine for those who love all things made by hand and the history behind them. Every issue explores the life and work of traditional needleworkers, takes an in-depth look at historical needlework techniques, and gives instructions for making heirloom-quality projects of your own. (from Zinio.com)

I am so excited to be doing some freelance writing, and in particular, for PieceWork magazine, a publication I have loved for many years.  Stay tuned for more soon!

Open Studio Success - and FIRST Sea Grant Work Showing!

I'm so proud of my Open Studio showing this year at Erector Square last month.  I had a great response to my work, and it was invigorating to have so many people viewing and commenting on my pieces.  Thank you to all of my studio guests, and thank you to Artspace New Haven for a great event this year!  

Here are some photos, in no particular order, of the event (pictured are my studio space, some of my guests, and the outside of the Erector Square complex:
