Art on the Green in Coeur d' Alene, Idaho

I am sooo happy to have been accepted to this premier (and local) fair!  I was accepted in two categories: wearable fiber art and non-wearable fiber art...therefore I had a double booth to properly display all my work in both these categories.  Whew! Thanks for family willing to help with set-up and tear down.

Beyond getting in to the art fair, I also submitted two pieces to the juried art show (contest) that is displayed and judged during the art fair.  Prize money is involved!  While only one of my pieces made it into this show...the one that did was deemed a winner!!!  Vessels are time consuming to create and "Leaves" was my first.  I am so proud that it gained an award the first time I entered it in a juried contest.

I also sold my first very seriously large wall piece (for over a thousand...yippe!), Symphony in Felt Major, during the fair to a lovely couple from Post Falls.  It is so large they couldn't fit it into their car so we delivered it the day after the fair closed.  It is nearly five feet long and over three feet high!  You can't tell in this photo, but the background fabric is a beautiful cream silk with a subtle diagonal pattern. Very excited about this sale!  The whole art fair was a huge success for me and I want to thank all of the people who have purchased before and returned for more as well as my new supporters!

Many of you have been asking for details about my upcoming classes so click on the CLASS Description tab and my new Events/Teaching Tab and you will see I have filled in details about each.

Next up is the second annual Cd'A Studio Tour and Sale on September 7th...see you there!
