Since I was a child…I like to “make things “….. the motto of many of us !

It is a joy to find her work again and learn how she has evolved and grown to experiment with surface texture and applied stitched pattern. Thank you for following up the story of her amazing talent!

I would love to see “Tracings VII” in person as I am sure the rich surfaces would be a delight. Thanks for the interview.

I have admired her work and the support she so willingly shares with others (like photographing for V. Spiegel) and the inspiration she gives to her followers. As a contributing artist with years of private study and focused art making, Deidre inspires creativity and happily promotes the value of devoted studio time. This is an all important aspect in all of our work in progress… just get in there and do it! Loved seeing her new work and wish I were closer to VISIONS location to be able to see her solo show. Definitely visited her links.

For those of us with a multi media background it is good to see an artist incorporate all
of her skills and bring then to fruition in exceptional ways.

Thank you,

She is truly a very talented textile artist and has been a favourite of mine for many years. The article was very helpful to me and the questions very pertinent to my process at present. So very timely!
