It’s hard to believe that it’s already April! Where has this first quarter gone? I’m a couple of days late but I’m so excited to share March Club with you. Inspiration for this month came from this photograph. It was taken by Eric on a backpack camping trip he did with our youngest daughter a…

February 2018 Club Reveal – Canyon Waters
I’ve loved going through some of our old photographs to find inspiration for club. This month’s inspiration came from a trip we did as a family a couple of summers ago. I love the play of the green river running through the brown and grey of the surrounding cliffs. It’s just such a pretty contrast.…
December 2017 Club Reveal – Hush
For many years now, I have followed a local painter, Amy Stewart. So when she posted the photo below back in October, I quickly sent a message to my husband, telling him that I loved it. We had a short discussion and decided that it would be a great second piece to add to our…
November 2017 Club Reveal – Starling
10 years ago, my husband and I took a trip to Europe. When we were in France we visted Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy. I’d first visited this little tiny island when I was 13 and on a school trip. I loved going back and experiencing it as an adult. While we were there, the colours…
July Fibre Club Reveal – Pesuta
Growing up, one of my favourite places to visit was the Queen Charlotte Islands or as it is now called, Haida Gwaii. My mom was born on the island and grew up there. It was place we would visit to see our extended family and to enjoy the quiet beauty of the landscape. As a…
June 2017 Club Reveal – Stained Glass
Last summer, we took our girls on a road trip through southern BC and into Alberta before coming home. One of the places we visited was Drumheller and we stopped at The Little Church. It was a place I’d visited as a child and I was so excited to take my girls there to see…
May 2017 Fibre Club Reveal – Quiet Solitude
Many years ago, Eric and I went on what we lovingly refer to as our “quasi honeymoon.” It was about 6 month after we got married and we went to England and France. Since we also tied the trip in with visiting an old friend of mine and my sister, we couldn’t really consider it…
April Club Reveal – At First Light
Shortly after I finished photography school in 1996, I traveled up to the Queen Charlotte Islands to attend my uncle’s wedding. Since I was “free” of responsibilities, I decided to extend my trip and have a longer visit with my grandparents and extended family. One evening, I was asking my grandpa about sunrise and where…
March Fibre Club Reveal – Brunswick Sky
March has been a crazy busy month. Fibres West ran on the 17th/18th and the weeks (honestly, months!) leading up to it were packed with dyeing and carding. There were times where I questioned my sanity of running a fibre club in amongst this chaos! However, I was having so much fun, that it was…
