I am a studio artist and textile designer. My work swirls around among art, design, and the joy of making things. I founded LFN Textiles Artists Ribbons in 2002, and have been designing these fairly wonderful ribbons for 8 years now. They are distributed for the wholesale market exclusively by Renaissance Ribbons, and are available at retail on my website, www.lfntextiles.com, and nationwide through fine fabric stores, gift shops. My tapestries are available through a number of galleries across the country as well. See the links section for contact information.

ribbons for spring








I spent the afternoon yesterday updating my website to include 7 new ribbons for spring. It is always somewhat arduous to do and I feel like shouting from the rooftops when I finally mange to pull off a new look or add new items. For those of you who don't know me, I have a sort of crazy determination to do everything -- except change the oil, mow the grass, and vacuum the house -- for myself. Not knowing any HTML, keeping a website is a tough proposition! It means stretching the tiny confines of the stiff little templates that come with the website admin package. I wish it were as easy as blogging!

So here are the new ribbons I added. I hope to add projects with them soon. Please comment if you enjoy them!

  1. Of all your colorways in the poppies design, I like the pink/apple green the best. It's so fresh! I paired it with two sets of hand towels, one a soft light pink, and the other a soft pale green. Of course, as an artist, you know all about color theory etc., but for me, as a mere craftsman, I remain startled by the different effects that can be achieved. When paired with the pink towels, the ribbon lit up like spring tulips in sunshine. On the green towels, the effect was more muted, like the mist of an April morning.
