Zoot pieces, workshops and displaying pieces
Just a quick “business-y” note:
I’ll be…yippeeee!!!!!….. heading off to a workshop at ProChem in Fall River, Mass., next week. I’m taking the second week of Color Mixing for Dyers with Carol Soderlund. I head down on Monday (and hope to stop at the new Ikea near Boston en route), about a 6 hour drive if I were to go non-stop (not!). I have blogposts set to publish while I’m gone….
The next set of posts will be closeups of the pieces at Zoot Coffee House (see earlier post dated October 3rd). If anyone is interested in purchasing one, just drop me an e-mail either through a comment here or via the contact me link on my website (look up at the top menu bar for the hotlink). I’m not sure if I’ll have internet while in Fall River, so if you don’t hear from me until I get home next weekend, it means no Wi-Fi!
Finally, Dianne in Annapolis had a great question: how exactly do I mount those pieces on the canvas? Perfect for a tutorial. PLUS, I had mounted the pieces I made for the two “On the Edge” articles in Quilting Arts Magazine (about finishing the edges of quilts) and wanted to blog about display alternatives. So, when I get back, I promise to show a couple of ways to do this. I really gotta convince a publisher to let me do edge finishes and display alternatives as a book, or else self-publish! Too many ideas, never enough time. Anyway, keep popping back in for more good stuff –with pictures– starting tomorrow!
