I am a Canadian artist in Calgary, Alberta, working primarily with textiles. I'm curious, eccentric and just a little opinionated.
Please do not add my photos to your Pinterest without asking me--this violates the copyright clause that say *I* have exclusive right to decide where my work is distributed, Do not be a smartypants and think you are promoting me--if you really were, you'd be linking to my actual site, not Flickr. I take copyright issues VERY seriously.
Do not add me as a contact if i can't see any photos from you. If you're not willing to share,why are you interested in mine?Please do not "friend" me on Facebook, or ask me to join your Fanpage----if i like you i will, otherwise i will ignore you. Life is too short to keep up with the Jonesing.
My shop FyberSpace is now open for business, specializing in naturally dyed and eco printed silks and cottons

"Arlee you amaze me with the sheer volume and intensity of your work.
Every time I try to catch up with your blog there are loads of new posts each with amazing experiments and adventures in stitch.
You are a great asset to the textile community . You encouraged me to blog and supported me when I first arrived here. Thanks for being a great friend. (And thank you for all the advice.)"16th December, 2009

"arlee is an absolute gem.
it's rather rare to find someone who is unabashedly honest about their creative life and yet in equal measure talented, yet she is both.
her natural dyed fabrics are positively delicious and if you're considering buying some.....DO!
an absolute dynamo! there's no stopping this woman!"31st January, 2011

"Arlee, I know I've been a bad blog pal, and I've missed a lot of what you've been up to, but you have been an inspiration for me for a couple of years now. I am always excited to see what you've been trying on and what technique you've been test driving. Your work is thrilling!"

"Arlee is great! I really admire her style, her tremendous spirit and creativity as well as her wicked humour. Her work is gorgeous, using beading, free motion embroidery and applique in rich textures and colours. This is one textile artist that inspires, encourages and keeps me constantly entertained. Please visit her blog at arleebarr.squares...."
