Not bloody likely 😉

A screenprint called On The Waves hand printed by me featuring fishing boats, a yacht, gulls, rocks, cliffs and a buoy.

I have finished all of the new Pigon coastal print illustrations but this one, "On The Waves" has actually been hand printed by me already (well some of the edition) so it's available right now.

BTW, this is the machine you're supposed to rage against

Ottawa Launches New Industrial Strategy with the European Union Mélanie Joly, Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions, announces the launch of a strategy of industrial dialogue between Canada and the Europea...

Minister Joly and the Team just never stop.
She/they are doing all these things and talking to Canadians and Canadian businesses about trump.
On a side note can they just stop replying to questions they have answered dozens times already.

My 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ pride #quilt top is ready for quilting. I think I’m going to take my time doing this myself. I’m happy with the rainbow colours and 80s vibes

So many years I've spent shrinking myself and allowing others to control and rewrite my story... No more. I know who I am. My family knows who I am and they saw how I worked to get where I am now. That's what matters most. Block feature activated. #artquilt #quiltsky

So true 😅

Sometimes you do #crafts and you ask yourself, "Did this turn out well?" And the answer is no. But then you ask yourself, "But did I have fun doing it?" And the answer is also no.

A patchwork quilt on my dining room table. It’s showing 3 giant strawberries and a green backing that has clovers and fireflies. The quilt top is covered with safety pins to hold the three layers (top, batting, backing) together during the quilting process.

The strawberry quilt sandwich is done. I’ll quilt it when it cools off a little and once I figure out what thread color to use.

2025 Mid-Year Rental Market Update Discover how increased supply, shifting affordability and evolving vacancy rates are shaping Canada's rental market in 2025.

CMHC's latest Rental Market Update shows a mixed bag for renters:
👍 Advertised rents are⬇️ from Q1 2024.
👎 Advertised rents are still up to 44% more than occupied rents (more precarity).
💲 Rent-to-income ratios continue to deteriorate, suggesting more instability in the future.

It has been and emotionally tough week. I have been sewing little bags to get myself grounded. They will be for sale eventually, but right now I'm just sewing and sewing.
