Katie Sorrell aka Heart's Haven

Katie Sorrell is a textile artist and craftsperson living in Toronto, Ontario. Originally from Nova Scotia, she is heavily influenced by nature and timeworn artistries such as needlecraft. Her work alludes to the process of making, and although her pieces often tell her own story, they also concurrently carry an inherent narrative within them.
