New digs and art - attack!

Hi All,
I have new studio space at Bridgehead Studio right here in Alameda.  I'm pretty tired from moving in, but very happy to have such a great place to create.   My studio is not quite set up yet.  As soon as it is pictures to follow.

At Bridgehead there are monthly events: The-Estuary-Art-Attack and open studio events too.  I can't wait to attend.  Just the small amount of art I have seen in the hallways is FAB!

Well, I'll have a party to warm up the place.  I'll send you an invite soon...  See you at my place.

Cheers,
Mary

Treasure Island Flea -- I'll be there -- come by and say HI!

Hi Everyone,

I'll have a table at the Treasure Island Flea tomorrow and Sunday.  I gotta say that it looks like it is going to be a great time.  First -- Yummy Food!  Second -- amazing views of San Francisco Third -- you can see me!

There is even a fancy Groupon for Treasure Island Flea for the event.  So if you are in the know what that is and how it works -- man I am impressed!  If you don't just click on the link - and join those who are in the know.  :)

It is my birthday too.  No need to bring gifts :)   Just stop by and say Happy Birthday!

Mass Love to all ya' all,
Mary

a good wind a blowing...

Hi Ya,
This is so exciting.   One of my alloneword caps is on the gal who writes one of the best bike blogs around.   Her blog is called change your life ride a bike.  I feel so happy about this.  I got to meet her at the San Francisco Bike Party on friday.  Which was wonderful.   I'm not very comfortable riding in traffic nor with other riders.  I had a great time anyway.  Next time will be even better.
Cheers,
Mary

Bina Bilenky & alloneword caps...

Hi All,
Bina Bilenky emailed these fab photos of her family in my caps!   They can be found at Bilenky Cycle Works in Philadelphia PA.

Here are two articles about Bina Bilenky. 



 I met her last year at the Philadelphia Bike Expo.  It was my first big bike event.  She was (and is) extremely helpful.  I am pretty darn happy she is working on the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show -- April 8,9, and 10 -- and I get to work with her again.

Cheers,
Mary

new web site!!!!!!

Hi Everyone,

Here is my new website allonewordshop      Stop by and check it out!  It is still in the building stages -- please tell me what you think.  I'll have current shows, new items, listings of great places to find nifty fabric, and much much more.

My bad for the long lag time between posts.  It seems that I am not so much of a Blogger.  I will add postings and keep you up to date on my events and shows.   The new website allonewordshop will be the main hub of Mary information.

Thank you all so very much for following my blog, it means so much to me.

Here are two blogs I follow.  (so very good both of them)

First:

monkey and seal

Give them a look see.  It is written by two local San Francisco artists.

Second:

The Enchanted Square

Give her a look see.  She lives right here in the East Bay.

Both blogs are wonderful.  monkey and seal have great insight in how to live as an artist.  The Enchanted Square shows how to make everyday, everything art.
