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.

New Ribbons!

Oh, I have been waiting for this day.  One of the best parts of my job is when the designs finally lift out of the computer and the actual textile appears.  After much sampling and back-and-forth, it is so much fun to have physical, textured ribbon!  Not exactly in my hands yet but photographed and on the way, here are 5 new ribbons for spring from me, LFN Textiles, and my wholesale partner, Renaissance Ribbons.  I will post them on the website as soon as they arrive in the studio.  Until then start imagining what you will do with them!

ribbon dog collars

Many of our ribbon customers use it to make dog collars and leads, and I was happy to hear from another design client yesterday telling me she had spotted my designs while shopping at Wonderdog.  So of course I trotted over to their website and saw many many LFN Ribbons made into such cute collars.  Thanks for the tip, Aileen, and thanks for using them, Wonderdog!
