I haven't had nearly enough time to design fabric as my media coordinator and graphic designer duties have kept me so busy as we prepare to open two new businesses in our arts complex. Happily, today has presented me with a brief break from work to whip up some new designs that have been inspired by our beautiful, fleeting summer and working on living a greener existence. The lush greens that surround me found their way into my designs in their many forms - leaves, grass and pine trees.

Here is my latest creation, which I call Adirondack Attitude. I felt inspired to create this as summer is on it's way out in the northland and will be gone far too soon. This design allows me to hang on to a bit of that summer feeling even when the world up here has turned white and stormy.
