They All Celebrated

At the last evening of our week all classes held an impromptu exhibition of work. From felt, to gold embroidery to indigo dyeing and raffia weaving there were displays of fine work and craft. There was even a fashion show that wove between our improv quilt works. Good night Geelong Fibre Forum 2019, it was swell.

Time for My Lecture

They saved me for last, but I can say that all stayed awake. The Geelong Fiber Forum has a myriad of classes in collage, dressmaking, metal works, and dyeing. So, this Abstract Contemporary Quilt Form was of great interest. The Aussies are a load of fun!

Art Quilt Australia

Such good timing to be in Geelong, Australia at the same time as Art Quilt Australia. A strong group of art quilts from across the country were beautifully exhibited. Many names were familiar to me from other exhibits and meetings. Just a treat for my mid-week teaching at Fiber Forum.

Working Abstractly

Some are just fine working improvisationally like a guitarist who can riff a tune atop the melody. Making it up as we go, it means that the parts start to have a dialog with the other sections that appear. Margaret is getting that tune for sure.
