Textile artist Michelle Mischkulnig was there to meet me to view and chat … Continue reading

All … Continue reading

Of course, I took my camera in the hopes of finding some reference material for sketches … Continue reading

I entered three pieces, all triptychs – and one of them won first place in the section “Creative Embroidery / Mixed Media”! A nice surprise!
