Trip to Peru

Just got back from my bi-annual trip to Peru. I always love being there, visiting all the artisans who work for me and finding inspiration along the way.

Punk Show Inspiration

I have wanted to do something incorporating zips in a rug for a long time, and also, but separately, using plaid in a modern way.  The "Punk: Chaos to Couture" exhibition at the Met seemed the perfect time to combine the two and salute my Brit heritage.
