About Me

My photo
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.

fall at Crate & Barrel

This fall I am happy to have a new version of the suzani flower as a doormat at Crate & Barrel.  This was done for summer 2010 in brights and now it is printed on coco fiber in warm autumnal colors.  You might recognize the pattern, it is one of my best-selling ribbons as well!

spoonflower contests

I do have fun entering Spoonflower's themed fabric design contests.  Recently I have entered 3 contests, and you can look for my designs -- and vote for them! -- here.  And if you are so inclined, you may look at a number of designs I have made available for public view and purchase by searching Spoonflower for lfntextiles.
Here is my entry for Surrealist Fruit, closing tomorrow.  An earlier incarnation of this design was used a couple of years ago on an apron & mitt set from Crate & Barrel.
 Upcoming contests I have entered:
