Well, thought I’d better bank out another post, the last one for 2008, as the last few weeks have been very busy for me and everybody I know. Though the shows are over for another year, it’s more than past time to look at next years shows and mostly the cheque writing part ….. I’m…
The Chicago One of a Kind Show and Sale is over for another year and we got back on Monday after an uneventful drive through Michigan (no lake effect blizzards), and a pleasant but short stopover in Battle Creek. I did learn that apparently two men – a native and a white man I believe…
Sandra Whitton Gallery Kingston Ontario Well, here we are at the One of a Kind Chicago and heading in to the first day tomorrow(or should I say.. today)! The set up today was OK though my other half had to sit in the van for hours in a line up waiting to be called to…
Out and About Just last week I attended the opening of my friend and colleague Delvalle’s new gallery location. Yes everyone was there, here in Kingston you run into everyone at gallery openings – both artists and patrons – and it’s a great way to stay connected and in touch with the scene. Here she…
Last week my friend Yvonne said I must go downtown to Gwyn Gryffon (needlepoint, knitting and winery) to help her choose a needlepoint for a Winter project. She pops over to my studio in the evening now and again with her lovely yellow lab. We chat while I work so this would be a golden…
Georgia and me in our witch’s hats!!!! Boo!(note the tulle w/spiders over my face) Well, what a weekend. It was the Town and Country Studio Tour in and around Kingston and though I didn’t think I had done the prep I would have liked it went well. The weather cooperated and sales were made. I…

I just thought I had better put this little bit of business online, that the Beach Studio Tour that I founded back in 1994 has invited some of the original artists to have some of their current work displayed in the Beach prior to this Fall’s tour. DeClute real estate offices 2241 Queen St E…
Long time since I have posted here. I’m currently in Britain’s North with my parents on their 60th wedding anniversary trip, long awaited and can’t believe we’re here. Surrounded by cousins who are no longer the little kids I had to play with when young (I’m the eldest) they are great middle aged adults we’ve…
I had to give up going to Cleveland for Inspiration ’08, the machine knitting seminar there as I’m off to England with my parents in five days! Though I really missed the weekend with my friends, getting together with other machine knitters and getting inspired and learning new things from people like Iris Bishop I…
