Head’s Up
The current exchange rate between US and Canadian dollars is now more or less at par – in fact I lost money on the last bit I exchanged at the bank. 🙁 I will be changing the US $ price on my Artfire site in two days to reflect the new exchange rate which means…

A Matter of Pressing
Pressing today was a bit of a marathon as I scrambled to get shawls ready and some more red scarves. (This photo was taken with my Blackberry, so a little issue with focus – sorry.) At the recent sale in Seattle, I was introduced to a customer who had purchased one of my scarves last…

CD Weaver
After publishing Magic in the Water; wet finishing handwovens, people started asking when I would be producing a video. I was highly reluctant to do this for several reasons. First, I had done just enough video camera work to know exactly how difficult it is to get good video. Secondly, I knew that in order…
