October 2021 Open Studio
October 2021 Open Studio is the perfect time to come see a preview of what I’m weaving for our annual Holiday Market in December! And, or course, to see all the new rugs, table runners and tapestries you may have missed this past year. You can see all my available pieces in the shop.
The image featured is a selection of wool for a custom rug I recently finished. See the finished rug on the Custom Handwoven page.
Email me to make an appointment to come by the studio talk about a custom rug for your home.
Open Studio is Saturday, October 2, from 11am to 4pm. Find me in studio C4 at Studio Channel Islands, 2222 E. Ventura Blvd., in Camarillo, CA.
Studio Channel Islands is an art space with 40 artists studios and an art gallery located in a former elementary school. Open Studio happens every first Saturday of the month. Mark your calendar to come and see what’s new and visit all the studios and artists during October 2021 Open Studio!

American Craft Week
American Craft Week is celebrated across the US. Artists, studios, museums and galleries open for visitors and have special events. This year ACW is October 2-11.
Due to the Covid19 virus I won’t be able to open my studio to visitors this year. Sign up for my email announcements to hear when we’ll be able to open our studios to visitors again. (I send about one a month.)
My studio is part of a larger arts group, Studio Channel Islands, made up of about 40 artists who work in a variety of different mediums. When we are able to have open studios again, you can visit with all the artists on First Saturday Open Studio, and stop in to the Blackboard Gallery to see the current exhibits. Lots to see!!

A Time to Gather
Join me for “A Time to Gather,” a new collection of table runners on exhibit in the Member’s Gallery at Studio Channel Islands October 1 through December 19, 2020 and right here online!
During this stressful year, “A Time to Gather” focuses on how we come together over a meal and set our tables with care and love to share time with each other. Even if it’s a small gathering, it’s special.
I’ve got new Life Lines series table runners and a couple new designs I wove just for the exhibit. It’s always fun to come up with new color combinations and designs to show you! I also have some mini runners and coasters that are sweet small pieces you can use in so many places to add a pop of color.
I’ll also add a virtual walk through the gallery soon! All the runners are for sale. Free shipping in the US! Please email me if you have any questions. I hope you enjoy the runners as much as I enjoyed weaving them for you!

I’m delighted to have my piece, Life Lines Table Runner 18, in the Fiber 2020 exhibit at Silvermine Galleries, New Canaan, CT. The exhibit was juried by Beth C. McLaughlin, Chief Curator of Exhibitions and Collections at Fuller Craft Museum, Brockton, MA.
