First Spring Show!


.fossettes. will be at its first spring craft show!
Ally & Cory are putting on a fabulous new event with the concept of swapping your gently used clothing for new (to you) outfits!
There will be local artisans and a spa upstairs at the Winspear Centre on May 29th 2010. Here is the link and all of the info. It should be a really great day. There will also be the Make It Show that weekend so I strongly suggest that you head to the Over The Top Fashion Swap to bring in your no longer loved fashions, choose some new ones, pick up some jewellery (my mom will be doing her first show - YAY!), come say hi to .fossettes., head to the downtown market and then to Make It!

Spring has Sprung!!!





I L O V E this time of year when the sun is shining upon our lovely faces warming up our skin and bones, the birds are chirping in the background and kids are riding their bikes on the street. Mother nature has finally delivered her spring promise.
And now its my turn to deliver my spring promise of getting into that sewing room and get back to it!!!! I have a couple of ideas going through my head and would really love to apply my fascination with dying fabrics this season, applying some silk screening.....which I realize I have been talking about for a while BUT just this weekend I was actually dipping my fingers in some beautiful bright blue shimmery paint.... I have not tried the whole photo emulsion process quite yet - its a little more elaborate and well it requires time and patience which I will have soon I hope!!!!
So heres to SPRING and the rebirth of new things, the greener grass and the laughter in the sunshine.... and some hopefully soon to be wicked silk screening. Ill keep you all posted with pictures.
