A Visit from a pair of Baltimore Orioles
This pair of Baltimore Orioles seem to be staying around for a few days. We’ve been feeding them oranges… They are so beautiful, but the oranges are very expensive! Let me know if you’ve seen any of these beautiful birds in your back yard. What are you feeding them? (They were actually eating out of the Hummingbird feeder before we bought the oranges!)

75 Years of Weaving in the
Guild of Canadian WeaversI have two pieces in the Guild of Canadian Weavers online exhibition, although they didn’t make it in the GCW Bulletin and I’m not sure why! I was sooooo disappointed that it wasn’t included in the Bulletin but it is included in the online exhibition. Check it out at: https://thegcw.ca/exhibition/karenleblanc

Atlantic Vernacular Artist Talk
On January 28, 2023 Carlos Morales and I went to Moncton to be part of an artist talk with Gillian Dykeman, Tracy Austin and Gabriel Robichaud. We discussed the exhibition and the significance of Atlantic Canadian culture in their creative practices. The livestream of this event is now on Youtube for your viewing pleasure and below… Thank you to CraftNB for this opportunity! https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FCraftNBmetiersdart%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02kxPUfE6Z61dU745cT2d2Jc7KPjk1EmfrJdyM4aNvtyUjnCJvSbUXskKtr6kxHGWkl&show_text=true&width=500

The Karen Warping Process
I discovered that everyone seems to have a different warping process, so I’m calling mine the “Karen Warping Method!” Why not? I couldn’t put them on my website, but they’re all (8 videos of the entire warping process!) on my YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@loominationskarenleblanc5750/videos
