Collector’s Choice
Collector’s Choice is a fun “game show” style fundraiser where you get to choose a donated artwork of your choice from the exhibit! Artists have donated from all over the country, and this year, the world!
This is the seventh year of the annual Spring fundraiser which supports the non-profit Studio Channel Islands. Proceeds go to support their mission of providing arts education programs in the local schools, community and at Studio Channel Islands.
My studio is located on the Studio Channel Islands campus and I’m happy to support this fundraiser with my donation of Life Lines Table Runner 17, valued at $500.
Collector’s Choice Exhibit March 6 – May 22, 2021
The exhibit is opens March 6 in the Blackboard Gallery at Studio Channel Islands. You can make an appointment to visit the gallery and see the exhibit in person and choose your favorites before the event on Saturday May 22. Event tickets are $300 and admits two people to the Collector’s Choice event when you get to choose and take home a single artwork.
I’m excited that we should be able to hold this event in person again this year. In 2020 it was held online for the first time and it was a great success but always more fun to be in the room with friends and fellow art lovers. Not to mention, seeing the artwork in person!
I hope to see you there!

Art Therapy in the Time of Covid19
Art Therapy in the Time of Covid19
Art Therapy in the Time of Covid19 is an online exhibit hosted by American Craft Week. Each year American Craft Week (ACW) recognizes exceptional creative work in their annual Artist’s Contest. I’m honored that ACW chose my rug Horizon Heart to be part of this years exhibit.
Art Therapy in the Time of Covid19 is the perfect title! Being able to design and weave this rug when the pandemic struck was therapeutic. Weaving a rug is always a stress reliever because beating in the fiber takes some energy. Weaving this design kept my mind on better days ahead.

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!
