🍂 Wool Month 2025 🍂

For Wool Month 2025, my favourite photographer and I took to the winding coast of Northern New Brunswick and Gaspé, Québec to explore the land our family has called home for more than 250 years.

Along the way, we stopped to photograph some of the Canadian wool products I've brought to life for my clients.

Now I'm sitting down to create a few Look Books that showcase the incredible work of our farmers, their sheep and our millers. Stay tuned

Summer Internship Collaboration with École supĂ©rieure de mode de l'ESG UQAM

This summer, I had the pleasure of working with Nicolle Palacio, an intern from L'École supĂ©rieure de mode de l'ESG UQAM. I challenged her to design and build a Canadian wool traceability database to track wool inventory. Our conversations were as enriching for me as they were for her. That's the beauty of working with interns; we learn from their approach, their energy and how they see the world. I’ve shared some reflections on wool traceability in a blog post that will be live on my website soon. Nicolle has now graduated from UQAM and is heading to the Malmö University in Stockholm. She has a bright future ahead of her.

Special thanks to ESM-ESG UQAM for the opportunity to collaborate.

Collaboration estivale avec l’École supĂ©rieure de mode de l'ESG UQAM

Cet Ă©tĂ©, j’ai eu le plaisir de travailler avec Nicolle Palacio, stagiaire Ă  l’École supĂ©rieure de mode de l’ESG UQAM. Je lui ai confiĂ© le dĂ©fi de concevoir une base de donnĂ©es de traçabilitĂ© de laine canadienne pour suivre mon inventaire. Nos Ă©changes ont Ă©tĂ© aussi enrichissants pour elle que pour moi. C’est toute la richesse du travail avec les stagiaires : on apprend de leur regard, de leur Ă©nergie et de leur façon de voir le monde.

J’ai partagĂ© quelques rĂ©flexions sur la traçabilitĂ© de la laine dans un blogue qui sera bientĂŽt en ligne sur mon site.

Nicolle est maintenant diplĂŽmĂ©e de l’UQAM et s’envole vers l’UniversitĂ© de Malmö Ă  Stockholm. Un bel avenir l’attend!

Merci à ESM-ESG UQAM pour cette belle opportunité de collaboration.
