Upcoming Events!
Hi Fiber Fans!
Oh my have I ever been remiss...so sorry! We have been busy here in North Idaho though even if you did not know since I wasn't posting. So let me tell you what we have been up to!
First, we moved...then my dear hubby had shoulder surgery. We have yet to unpack everything, but I have been able to do some work in my new studio...which is FAN-TAS-TIC since all I have to do is look out and I see a wonderful view of the main channel on Lake Coeur d' Alene!
I was also busy this winter getting my applications in for some local Art Shows. I'm very pleased with the outcome too. First up is Art Fest May 31-June 2 which means it is this weekend!!! (www.northwestmuseum.org/explore/events/artfest) Then I have Art On The Green August 2-4 (www.artonthegreen.org) followed by the second annual Art Alliance Studio Tour and Sale Sept. 14th. (www.artsincda.org) Still waiting to hear back from the folks that put on Custer's Christmas Arts & Craft Show at the fairgrounds in Spokane in November...keep your fingers crossed for me!
I have branched out into some new territory with my art this year. It will all be revealed this weekend at Art Fest. Hope to see you there!

My Gown and A Vessel
Hello!
Here is a better shot of my first full length dress. Eggplant colored Merino silk and velvet...some recycling in there I am happy to say.
And I now have a series of 6 vessels completed...however one is already sold...this one is still available and represents the Grand Ole Oak.
Coming up this weekend is a fun little sale at St. Luke's in Coeur d' Alene. (Dec 1 from 9 am to 3 pm). Then next weekend, Dec. 8 at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds, the Farmers Market group will be holding their annual Winter Market. Lots of great stuff!!! Come fill your stockings!
I will have a double booth at the Winter Market! Many of you have never seen all my home furnishings so this double booth will feature both wearable art and home decor. New finished designs in Felptures, handbags, jewelry and HATS! See you there.
Happy Holidays,
Janet

Harvest Festival
Good Evening Fiber Friends,
Ahh...crisp morning air, frost, apples and pumpkins...
As we finished setting up for a month of selling at Green Bluff Grange Hall for the Harvest festival the other day, I decided to snap a few photos. We have a wonderful location that has allowed us to display my art on both sides of our grid wall! It doesn't show it in the pictures because we later changed things around, but my husband is set up demonstrating needle felting on one side and I have a cozy spot to demonstrate wet felting on the other side. We want to thank everyone that came by this past (first weekend) to see us. We had a delightful two days getting to know all our neighboring artists and visiting with Festival attendees. Let's keep fingers crossed that the beautiful fall weather continues!
We will be at Green Bluff through the end of the month on both Saturday and Sunday 9-5. Then look for us at the Kootenai Winter Market on December 8 at the Fairgrounds. www.kootenaifarmersmarkets.org
AND you can see me modeling my Dream Fantasy Gown at the Kootenai Environmental Alliance's 4th Annual Fashion Show...Saturday, Oct. 13 at the Eagles in Coeur d' Alene. http://kealliance.org/junk2funk/
In the meantime, I am busily working in my studio and squeezing in students when I can. So far I have taught two Nuno felt sessions and I have a third scheduled. It is exciting to see my students amazement when the bits and pieces all come together and they find they have created a one-of-a-kind work of art! Makes a teacher (me in this case) quite proud.
This week I have four Nuno scarves to finish as well as a custom ordered vest...which is going to be awesome! Pictures will be posted.
Have a wonderful week everyone,
Janet
