Lots to Share!

This week has been busy, busy busy...but really what else is new?  I have lots of fun announcements, information and of course shout outs to share!

I have meant to share this stuff but have gotten caught up in LIFE so here it goes!

First I wanted to announce that I will participating in a book that author and artist Chrissie Grace is writing- It's all about swaps and collaborations- there is a fun group of people participating and this is sure to be a really wonderful book.

  Check out Chrissie’s blog for more information! 

I will be having a trunk show here in San Diego at the Escondido Museum of Art during Escondido Fashion Week on Thursday, April 9th- Its not LA or NYC Fashion week but it is a week devoted to fashion!!! I am super excited and have been creating like crazy making some really unique purses to sell. Having a trunk show is a pretty cool opportunity and it got me thinking about having a virtual trunk show that all of you would be invited to attend on my blog- You would be able to view and purchase purses at discounted rate! 

Stay tuned for more info!!

I ALSO MUST have to give some shout outs to wonderful bloggers out there who have recently been throwing some wonderful PR my way in the last week! 

Please go check out Jennifer Perkin’s blog- not only because she gave Canvas Remix and AWESOME review but her blog is packed full of really creative tips, techniques and projects. I first met Jen when I was a guest on the DIY show Craft Lab and her easy personality and fun sense of humor made taping a television a little less stressful! I think Jen is one of the hardest working peeps in the crafting biz and I am so inspired by her ability to find creative ways to market and run her business!

My thanks go out to Kelly Rae who recently wrote a lovely post about Canvas Remix and hosted a give away on her blog. Because of Kelly’s post, I have aquired all kinds of new readers which is always great! I met Kelly a couple of year ago via email when working on my book and she has been a wonderful online friend who I hope I will someday get to meet in person!! If you don’t read her blog....you must!! It is full of honesty, inspiration and a true glimpse at what it means to find yourself as an artist!! 

You will have to visit the Quilting Arts blog for a wrap up of the Quilting Arts TV filming in February OMG!! There are some really great photos and some FUN video of all of us in the green room passing time!! 

Check out the Bernina Blog!!! Jeanne Delpit of Bernina who I met in Cleveland and is honestly one the nicest people I have met in a while taught me how to use a Bernina for the 1st time! I have been dreaming of Bernina ever since!!!
