My first attempt at overshot inlay. Bit spooky as befits the season… I’m doing an online course with @lunadendron - very good. The sharp eyed may see that this is actually swivel not overshot. Learned this from the Overshot Departures course from @handweavingacademy - Learning learning learning. I know there are plenty of mistakes in this but it’s not bad for a first attempt. In other news, a much loved friend is no longer with us and I’m sad. Candles and blankets are called for.

Something wicked this way comes... just in time for spooky season.

ArtsvilleUSA is proud to announce its fall exhibition, "Body of Work," opening Wednesday, September 2 on ArtsvilleUSA.com. Curated by Executive Director Elise Wilson, the exhibition explores the age-old concept of memento mori, a Latin phrase meaning “remember your mortality.”

"Body of Work" bears witness to the joys and burdens of the corporeal body, reflecting on what slips away and exalting what endures. The exhibition is an ode to the exquisite and the macabre, to bodies broken down and reimagined, to the tender play between presence and absence, beauty and dissolution.

Featured artists include Deborah Anderson, Jeffrey Burroughs, Alison Chism, Bridget Fox, Michael Gates, Lisa Gluckin, Sandy Love, Susan McDonough, Melanie Merenda, Katt Naz, Kit Paulson, Alice Scott, Tia Sculpt, Paul Watson, and Emelie Weber Wade. The show features a range of mediums, including jewelry, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, metalwork, and assemblage, all crafted by artists working in the WNC region.

Stay tuned for more updates🫀

I choose handmade because I want to live in a world where someone makes their money making mugs.

I want to live in a world with independent jewelry makers. Crocheters. Weavers. Seamstresses. Designers. Fragrance makers. Candlemakers. Woodworkers. Painters. Potters.

I've never been more aware of purchasing power than now, when I'm on the maker side of the transaction.

We're not rich. I didn't buy these all at once. These have been collected over time.

Carefully made purchases, a choice to spend more for quality and sacrifice a little convenience.

No one else has these items. I take GOOD care of them because I value them immensely. They inspire me, comfort me, and encourage me to delight in everyday routines. And I know the people that made them, I've met them.

The loveliest week spent with dear friends, splashing in the pool and enjoying afternoon rain showers and black bear sightings.

Asheville is rich with history and overflowing with talented artisans. Everything is well preserved and so full of personality. It’s a lush green mountain dream and we were grateful to trade the Texas heat for fresh Appalachian air for a week 🐻

Today isn’t just about celebrating our country’s history. It’s also a chance to reflect on the people who’ve helped shape it and those who continue to shape it every day.

I know America hasn’t always lived up to its ideals. There are chapters that make us proud and others that remind us how much work remains. But I still believe in the promise of this country because I’ve seen ordinary people do extraordinary things. I’ve seen neighbors show up for one another. I’ve watched communities rebuild. I’ve witnessed people choose compassion over fear and hope over division.

That’s the America I believe in.

Not because we’re perfect, but because every generation has the opportunity, and the responsibility, to leave this country a little better than we found it.

Happy Fourth of July, ya’ll. 🇺🇸

Something fun on the loom. I started my woven inlay exploration last year but it’s all been on my rigid heddle loom up until now. A figurative inlay class with @lunadendron was just what I needed to encourage me to use my floor loom. And perfect timing to be preparation for the class I’m taking on Theo Moorman technique this summer at @chgweavers It’s gonna be an inlay summer for me this year, y’all!
