look at these sweet porcelain pendants in marcie mcgoldrick's new etsy shop!  marcie and i shared an art studio with a bunch of other talented artists back in my brooklyn days.  she included my own etsy shop among her favorites in her blog post about the martha stewart book of crafts and the amazing craft hq at martha.  thanks, marcie!

at the end of last year, i got an art studio in an old textile mill building in easthampton.  its my first "real" art studio ever, and i love it!!!

i met amber, a fellow lover of colors and textiles, at the ACC show.  she was my neighbor in the AltCraft section, showing her amtextiles line of shibori scarves.  this month she interviewed me for her textile art newsletter - the full interview is posted on her blog.  thanks, amber!
