01 Feb How Small Biz, Textiles, Trim, Belts and Chain Inspire Creativity!
Happy Texture Tuesday! With all that's going on in our country and the world, I thought I'd give your mind (and mine) a break with this week's Texture Tuesday. I feature three textile art pillows I've submitted to apply for art exhibitions. Some exhibitions your work gets accepted, and others it doesn't. I'm currently waiting to hear back from two.
I thought you might enjoy seeing the creative process that goes on behind the scenes in the Deborah Main Designs studio for each art piece I handcraft.
07 Dec Texture Tuesday: Cheers to 7-10-14-17!
Look at all those shopping bags my friend Leslie Hyland Rogers is dashing out the door with! Leslie, founder of Symphony of Soul, and countless other new and old friends, made my first Holiday Open Studio & Sample Sale such a success that I've extended it to four more times in December. I haven't had an Open Studio since 2011, and I think it will now be an annual or semi-annual affair.
22 Oct Nostalgic Textures and Faded Tones – A Story of Innocence and Loss
"RESPONSIVE TEXTILES was founded on the idea that clothes are our second skin, and they should be as unique and human as we are." -- Kristine Rodriguez
A few weeks ago during New York Fashion Week (NYFW) I had the opportunity to write a story for a top kitchen and bath luxury brand BLANCO, and pair their IKONIC sinks and faucets with fashion hot off the runway of NYFW. I had heard of, but didn't know too much about, the up-and-coming fashion brand RESPONSIVE TEXTILES. I fell in love with the Bennu Skirt which I featured in my lead off image below. (If you missed that sponsored post, no worries, you can read it right HERE.)

20 Sep Texture Tuesday Inspiration – Green and Gold
Hi Friends. Starting up my Texture Tuesdays again. These are NOT long posts. Instead, they're about inspiration. You'll see amazing color and texture detail - from nature, textiles, fashion, and jewels - that inspire me and I hope you too.
