Form and Function Creative Free-spirited fiber artist and farmer inspired by nature and stories. I am a farmer and fiber artist behind the company, Form & Function Creative.

I live with my family on an alpaca farm that focuses on regenerative practices and provides the fleece that I spin into yarn and weave into fiber art. Finding inspiration in nature and stories, my work reflects my love for art as both product and practice, creating fiber art that embodies the elements of joy, connection and gratitude.

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is a stone. Two of them, on old brick, green in the seams, sun on the thread.

Waxing crescent tonight. A thin curve, still building.

(These are the meditation stones from The Slow Practice, our October season of wrapping fiber around stone. There's still room to join us.) Warm brick, cool thread. Which one would you pick up first? ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is on the ground in the yard, under a small tree just starting to turn. Yellow at the edges. Hickory nuts underfoot.

The moon's a thin waning crescent β€” a few days from new on Saturday, in Libra. The quiet stretch before a beginning.

(If you're tracking with The Slow Practice β€” today's word is begin, and meditation stones opens tonight at 7:30. A stone, some yarn, one thread at a time. What does beginning quietly make room for?) ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is resting on loose stones.

Yesterday was the equinox, day and night split even. The moon's waxing gibbous now, building toward Saturday's Harvest Moon.

The Slow Practice is where I'll be sharing this next season β€” a small, slow group, a new rock-wrapping practice every month, starting October 7. The stones are already here, waiting. ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is leaning on the fence at Poplar Grove β€” warp strung, waiting on the weft. Wednesday mornings this September, this is where I am.

Cool enough this morning to not bring the fan along. The moon's down to a sliver now, waning crescent, and Friday it goes new in Virgo.

(This week's Slow Practice word is rest β€” some weeks the moon's not doing much either.) ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is a rock. Fiber wrapped around stone instead of warped on a frame β€” my first meditation stone, ready for tonight's gathering.

The whole farm came home this weekend, too β€” all ten alpacas, the chickens, the ducks, home. Tonight, in the same room, the Founding Threads close one season and open the next.

I'm teaching this stone live, together. That's how this season works: each month at the gathering, a new technique to try.

The moon's waning toward third quarter Friday β€” the phase for gratitude, for passing along what's been gathered.

If you've been thinking about joining The Slow Practice, now's a good time to step in. A month holds: daily prompts shaped by the moon and the season, a weekly thread every Wednesday, a monthly gathering β€” live and unhurried. I keep the group small, capped at 10. Link below to join. ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is a stone β€” six of them, wrapped round and round instead of strung on a frame. A shell tucked into a few, holding on.

The moon's nearly full β€” Friday it turns full in Pisces. Filling in, same as this week.

(If you're tracking with The Slow Practice β€” today's pressing word is steady. The stones don't rush. They just get wrapped a little more each day.) ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, the loom's ringed in shell β€” a conch perched up top like it's keeping watch. Stones tucked in among the shells, smooth and quiet next to all that ridged texture.

Moon reaches first quarter tonight β€” in Scorpio, water finding its way in, same as the shell keeps finding its way onto this table.

(The next Slow Practice season is meditation stones β€” fiber wrapped around rock, slow as stone wants it.) What's calling you to make something today, even just for yourself? ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is on the beach, a shell tucked right onto the bookmark I'm weaving. Summer's last bits, and I'm not in a hurry to let them go.

The moon turns new today, in Leo β€” a total solar eclipse riding along with it. Leo doesn't wait to feel ready before it starts.

Here I am, sand working its way into the weave, the shell holding its place on the bookmark instead of getting tucked away.

(If you're tracking with The Slow Practice β€” today's pressing word is both. The shell says stay; the tide says go.) ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is back in the studio β€” returned to after a week with a lot in it. Full moon Monday, Mercury retrograde the same day; the waning gibbous tonight still so bright it barely looks like letting go.

Here I am, hands back at it, finding the rhythm that was here before all the swirling.

(In The Slow Practice this week we've been sitting with that same pull β€” when things feel like a lot, what's the small thing you keep returning to? For me it has a texture.) ❀️

🌊 Where's My Loom Wednesday

This week, my loom is content to rest on the towel and soak in the sea air. A slow kind of week.

Waxing Crescent β€” two nights past the New Moon, just a sliver starting to show.

Here I am, a few slow rows in, the sound of the water doing the rest.

(If you're tracking with The Slow Practice β€” we're both practicing receiving this week. What's one thing you're letting yourself just soak in?) ❀️
