A little hint about my halloween costume...

These ears will be making their debut Saturday night at a Halloween party along with the rest of my costume. Pictures of the whole outfit to follow, so keep guessing at what I'm going to be!

I love my hometown

Do you read From Me To You? Jamie is gorgeous and retro and just posted this guest blog on Oh Joy! about Kansas City! Gotta love this animated gif. Makes me miss home.




triangle quilt

I've been getting back into fiber art/traditional needle craft in the last year and a halfish since leaving art school. My mom is a fiber artist, so working with textiles is not something that's foreign to me. Not being able to practice printmaking at the same pace as I did in undergrad has been a difficult adjustment and I've been coping by tackling various sewing/knitting projects. I made this quilt recently as a gift for two dear friends, and I thought I would share it. 

It was incredibly hard to photograph this, as it is 95" square, and our little attic apartment is just not that tall. You should be able to click through the image to see a larger version.
I really love this quilt and how busy and bright it is.

put my hair up in braids and I can't decide if I like it or not...
