Orts: Threads of Creativity

A lot to crow about


Hi!

I hope you're having a nice start to your summer! I've been quiet, but busy, behind the scenes—completing a couple of book projects (fun, but so much work!), developing new kits, and of course, working on custom pet portraits.

The books, which will be released sometime next year, took up a lot of time and mental energy, but they were completed just in time for the start of my spring and summer markets. I'm excited to be in several craft and art markets in the Seattle area. If you're at one of these markets, please stop by and say hi!

June 20: The Friendly Bark Market @ The Friendly Bark in Lynnwood

June 23: From Pet to Patch Workshop @ Studio Forma in Seattle (6 PM to 8 PM) One spot left!

July 10 – 12: West Seattle Summer Fest @ The Junction in West Seattle

July 17 – 19: Alki Art Fair @ Alki Beach in West Seattle

July 25 – 26: Urban Craft Uprising @ Hangar 30 in Magnuson Park, Seattle

Speaking of new kits, I've launched 5 wild animal patch kits, now available online and in-person at markets. They have everything you need to embroider a stick-on patch and feature the following animals: a crow, pangolin, sea otter, axolotl (redesigned), and dwarf bat.

I'm working on four new kits to launch in July, including a special kit specifically for stitching on garments. I'm really excited about it!
