One of a Kind

I got in! I'm so excited!

I got the call today, earlier than I was supposed to. Valarie, my contact was too excited to tell me and couldn't wait :)

I'll be there for the full 11 days and I got the 5x10 booth I requested. So now the work begins, I'm actually a little freaked out since I don't have any clue what to expect. I was reading their checklist online and I have to think about lighting, flooring, what to do for walls, shelving.. and not to mention I have to figure out how much product to make!

Something tells me I'm not going to be sleeping much tonight.. or for the next 6 months!

New stuff

It's been a while again.. but how boring is it to post the same thing over and over and that's all I've been doing lately, owls, owlets and lots of alphabet pillows.

I've been busy applying to shows, I still haven't heard from The One of a Kind show, fingers crossed, and I did not get into the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibit, which would have been amazing, but I think it takes years of applying to get in!

I've been asked to submit some pictures for a Greek magazine, it's not 100% yet, but how fun is that! I've also got a copy of the Australian magazine I was in in the mail, I can't wait to see it! Kingston Interiors is out on June 6, I'm not sure exactly what will be in, but I submitted pictures of my owls and they came for a photo shoot. I think I blogged about the disaster my sewing room was, so I can't wait to see what they did with all the info and pics :)

I'm going to have artwork up at Dwell for the Art After Dark show, which is May 27 and I think 7-9... I will have some of my papercut peices and some fabric ones. This is a pic of one I started tonight. I wanted to try something a little different and a little more grown up than owls in a tree :P Not 100% how I'm feeling about the colours on the first flower, but we'll see.


And a pic of one of my paper cut pictures. I love using old windows for the frames, I have a few shutters too, which are cool cause they'll make really long and narrow frames.. not sure what I'll put in those yet.
