Shibori

Look for Cinamon Lily Studios at The Castleberry Holiday Craft Festival on December 12 & 13 at Rockingham Park, Salem, New Hampshire. This is a juried show where you will be able to purchase my one-of-a-kind silk shibori scarves and men's neck ties.

350 Day

International Climate Action Day was on October 24th. Bill Mckibben started this movement to bring attention to the global climate crisis. Our atmosphere is at 390 parts per million of co2, and we need to be at 350ppm to prevent the melting of the polar ice caps, and other irreversible impacts of global warming.

I worked with students from Phillips Exeter Academy and the Newburyport Environmental Club to help them understand this problem and take part in the international action. We created Healing blankets with 350 on them. This summer I will be taking all the blankets I have made with various groups to West Virginia to give to families whose lives have been impacted by mountain top removal coal mining. I will also plant many of them my self on the damage sites in the mountains. This trip has struck a cord with many people I have met, and a carvan of people will be coming with me.
