I started making bags in the fall of 2010 as a way to balance my life. My day job is as a registered nurse and while I love nursing, the creative process of working with these bags and other art balances the work of nursing. I use 100% wool, and silk as well as what I like to call "funny fibers" like polyester and nylon, which create interesting textures. Most of my bags are lined with silk or polyester to create a great finish and allow for pockets.

Day at Cowichan fleece and Fibre Festival
I was a vendor at the Cowichan Fleece and Fibre Festival yesterday. It was a very busy show lots of people non stop all say. I did a demo is silk fusion as well which was fun. Felted bags were popular as well as a new scarf toggle I had for the first time. I create a piece of sculpted fusion and add it to some crocheted wire. Then attach to the purchased ring. I only had 5 finished. More will be available at my open house in November.
