Yesterday was THANKSGIVING and I have so very, very much for which to be totally grateful! First ... the notifications came from the Smithsonian Craft Show. My artwork was accepted! I'm excited. I didn't even apply last year because the dates were too soon after our move to Cateechee. In 2022 I applied with my Found Object Mandalas and was accepted. This year, I applied in two categories: Decorative Fibers (with my In Box and fiber Stained Glass series) and Mixed Media (with my Found Object Mandalas. The mandalas did not get accepted but the "Decorative Fibers" will be going! I have lots of new work to make now despite having several pieces ready to go!
I am also grateful (and seriously "over the moon") to announce that The Lace Forest was accepted into Fiberarts International. Getting into this triennial has been one of my top artistic goals for ages! In anticipation, I am stitching even more strands of lace together. There were thirty in the show this summer. Last week, I passed forty and still have enough lace for at least another ten!
