Tonight!

I've been making...

For Lenora

For Mamaw

For Maddie

I recently saw an embroidery art exhibit at Gallery Hanahou, and it rekindled my love for hand stitching and delicately sewn lovelies.  I always have the itch to be crafty, but hard as it may be to believe, finding supplies for such things in New York can be virtually impossible and exhausting (not to mention pricey!)  Luckily threads are cheap, and we are, after all, in a recession... so feeding off of my exhibit inspired motivation, these are what happened when some recent birthdays rolled around.  I am pretty pleased with how they turned out, considering I am still an amateur. 

If you've got a reason to expect something... You better keep your eye on your mailbox (wink wink)!

Brooklyn, Meet Heliotrops...

On Wednesday, January 21st, Heliotropes will be giving our debut Brooklyn appearance at Public Assembly, in Williamsburg. This show will feature follow up sets by The White Noise Supremacists (Ife, of Heliotropes, solo project) and Drew and the Medicinal Pen.

This is only our second show ever, so come out and show us your support. I, with my stage-fright filled fingers, need to look out and see all of your smiling faces in the crowd.

Hope to see you there!
