Quilt Canada – less than 1 week – 2016.06.09

This popped up in my Instagram feed yesterday.   I’m very excited – next Tuesday, I’ll be flying to Toronto with my friend Janet to attend Quilt Canada in Toronto ON.

7 days to Quilt Canada

We’ll attend the awards ceremony on Tuesday evening.  We both have quilts entered in the show, so wish us luck!  I’ll be presenting the Innovation in Excellence award on behalf of the Fibre Art Network.

Then we’ll spend the next 3 days attending lectures and events, shopping in the merchant mall, meeting friends and, of course, viewing hundreds of gorgeous quilts!  This is the first year photos of the quilts will be permitted, so expect to see lots of quilts on Instagram – hashtag #quiltcanada

 

I haven’t had a lot of time for quilting recently, but I did find time to add a couple of pages to my website.  One shows exhibitions where my work is currently appearing, or will be on display in the near future.  The other lists awards I have won, and will eventually include a list of publications and past exhibitions I’ve been in.

 

One upcoming exhibit I’m especially excited about is a duo show with Judy Villett,  a friend, neighbor and fellow textile artist.  When she noticed that we both had a lot of tree images in our work, she suggested a joint show.  We submitted a proposal, and our show will open on July 1st!
