Upcoming exhibitions
Isn’t it just like an artist to start a blog and then not do anything with it for a long, long time? I’m trying to get back into it so I thought I’d start with good news. Isn’t that always the best way to start? It is very exciting that I have several shows to...
New work now on website!
New work now on my website. Click here to view Elaborate Banality Click here to view Secrets of Atlanta (Secrets still in progress, but more images coming soon!)
Send someone a postcard today
In this busy world of emails, FB, and tweets, why not send an old fashioned postcard that is slightly (but not really) offensive? I put this up in the Freebie section of my website, but wanted to get it out to more people. I hope to continue to offer more fun free things. Maybe if...
Atlanta road trip- sewing circle snapshots

In progress- lemonade stand sewing
Peeking further behind the curtain- drawing the design (created by Graham) with disappearing ink fabric pen, blocking out colored areas, then outlining. Doesn’t look so great in progress, but fun to see the transformation!
Elaborate Banality- more images
Enjoy! All pieces are one-of-a-kind hand embroidery and will be 12″ in diameter framed (lots of white space, the actual images are closer to 5″ – 7″). Once we have them framed, we will post new pics.
In progress- new series, Elaborate Banality
Since our foray into simple design with minimal color palette (and of course animal heads) was so fun to make, we have decided to create lots more. The series is titled Elaborate Banality, which is pretty artsy if you ask us. For those of you who did not see the post of our sewings for...

Extras- fun linoleum cut
Recently finished the annual “photo row, a.k.a. the big three” linoleum cut for our senior photography student print trade. Each year I create a linoleum cut from portraits sent to me by the photo faculty and make a print for each of our seniors as they head off into the big, bad world. Thank goodness...
Embroidery Hoop Lapstand
If you like to sew, you know that your back can get pretty cramped up quick. I have found, in addition to stretching, getting up often, and using a back support, that these hoop lapstands made by Morgan are fantastic. They make it so much easier to reach your work on a table, but can...
Masur Museum Fundraiser
Graham (full-time life partner and some-times art partner) and I created these two embroideries for the Masur Museum Off the Wall Fundraiser. We really like them and hope you do, too. Here’s to raising money for arts organizations!
