Just sayin' is all.

Clams - Check!

Thank god I got those out of the way.

So I'm home, catching up on rest. I always sleep more when I'm here. I think it's because it's so quiet, and I just revert back to being 16 years old.

I will be checking out the fabric store (yes, singular) while I'm here. I always find some cute stuff for the aprons when I'm here. That way when I get back I can start slaving away at the sewing machines... Oh the excitement up ahead... ;)

I DO look forward to the day when I can pay people to do my sewing for me... just open a box and have a pile of finished merchandise... Ah the dream.

On Holiday!

I'm off to visit the family in Moncton N.B. for over a week... where I will be baking lots and eating lots of lobster, fried clams and of course... home cooked meals.
I'm sure that once again, in the coming month, I will be posting more about food than anything else :)
Oh yeah, I will also be seeing friends and stuff like that... ;)

Some Photos From the Shows in London

Considering how weird the weather has been I can't complain. It rained off and on for the second show but the crowd was determined to not let it ruin their day! Amazing!

I'm getting to know a few people in London now just from doing these festivals and they come back year after year... so THANK YOU!
Yeah you. ;)



My ever-popular cube collection. I will never let it go.


A little from behind the scenes.
This is a new collection that I am very excited about! More individual photos soon...

So I WAS on the waiting list for the Xmas One of a Kind Show...
Now I'm actually IN the show!!! Woot Woot!

There was a cancellation! They emailed me yesterday to give me the good news!

So excited.
Of course this means work...TONS of sewing to do.

That will have to wait until after my last London show though, which I leave for in the morning.

So... if you're in London come on down to Victoria Park this weekend for Home County Folk Fest!
I'll be there with my jewels...

See you there.

Back from London!

... and off again on Friday!

I had a great 4 day show last weekend and I have just enough time to breath and make new jewelry. My regulars in London are keeping me on my toes. I need to make sure that I have new designs now every time I go! And, for all my regulars, I have been hard at work on a brand new collection off shiny, pretty, new things. So excited!!!

I will have photos next week, they're on my camera, I just have to focus on making new things right now as I am off to London again this Friday (my birthday!!!) for 3 days.

So, again, if you're in London Ontario this weekend, come by and say hello!!!

Home County Folk Fest
Victoria Park, London Ontario

See you there!

My Stalkee...

I went out to Niagara Falls last weekend (or the weekend before?)... time flies... and I HAD to go to Anna Olson's bakery! Screw the Falls right? I'm kidding, they're amazing... but, here is the first photo I will post, of me with her, of course, in front of the sweets counter. :)


Of course.

We had the White Chocolate Brownie Cheesecake (3 of them between two of us) and a delicious Creamy Lemon Square. We had one each at the bakery then I got two more for the road but then 30 minutes in the car I realized they probably should be eaten soon.

So we did.
Of course.

Her bakery is in the middle of a vinyard in Niagara on the Lake.
It's really quite amazing. We had our desserts with fresh cherry juice in the backyard overlooking all the vines.
