Jane, who owns and operates Sewn Natural and blogs over Sewn Natural Studio was our monthly gift certificate winner for January 2010.
Here’s Jane’s answers to our questions:
1. What do you love about living in QC?
After decades of living in Montreal and now in Gatineau, my love of Quebec is rooted in this province’s vibrant, creative approach to all aspects of life within the community. Because of Quebec’s close ties with Europe, there is a certain, lovely joie de vivre present. Also many environmentally and socially benefical policies were developed here earlier than in other parts of North America.
2. Who’s your favourite fabric designer (don’t feel pressured to name one in store!)
While I really love a number of designers, my favorites have to Marimekko, both past and present.
3. Do you have a secret stash of fabrics that no one else but you knows about? If so, what are you planning to do with it?
My secret stash of fabric includes some vintage Marimekko pieces and some Guatemalen huilpil fabrics handwoven by the women of Guatemala.
Congrats Jane!
