The third Mutton Hill Quilt Show is now history. Sales were moderate for me and I was quite
successful with three of my show entries.
Most importantly, I met more people who are or want to be more creative
and who appreciate my unusual hand dyed textiles and art work. Thank you.
I am energized and inspired by all of you whom I spoke to over the weekend,
and by all of the lovely quilts at the show.
I want this show to continue, for the Summit County Historical
Society, for the vendors, for the quilt crafters and artists, for the
supporters of textile arts. The show
dates for next year are October 19 & 20, 2018. Please consider entering a quilt next year,
and come out to the show. This is a show
worth supporting, all of us involved with it want it to continue. Consider making a challenge entry, the theme
for next year is the World War I Centennial.
Of course, I must brag a little. I won a second place in the Challenge class,
the theme being “What’s Your Story?”

One of my boxes that are a specialty of mine won an
honorable mention in the Fiber Arts category.

This was the first time that a Fiber Arts category was
offered at Mutton Hill, so I am very honored (and a bit surprised) to have won
first place Fiber Art this year!

My statement for this little piece reads; “In July, the
meadows around my rural home are filled with bright orange Butterfly Weed. This is one in a series of felted and
stitched pieces that captures the seasonal changes of the meadows.”
I enjoy sharing my creative expressions with others, and I
hope that I occasionally inspire others to try something new.
