Spring

Spring has delivered the Quilting Arts Magazine with my article in it to some of my friends, but I am waiting for my own to arrive! If you are checking out my blog from that article, thank you. I will hopefully have a website by Holly Knott up and running this summer.

Both of my collages sold and were delivered for Virginia Spiegel's fiber art for the cause. I look forward to more of these events in the future. I have had some fun doing exchanges online, but am returning to work in the studio on some commissions and gallery work.

Thank you to everyone who sent me the lovely cat photos for the SPCA fund raiser. I will put them up here as well as at the group sites where my friends sent the photos.

Virgina Spiegel Fiber Art for the Cause

I am so happy that on day one of the online auction one of my pieces sold!! Hopefully the second will as well since it is such a good cause. There were many interesting collages available, and I enjoyed shopping through them.

Quilting Arts Magazine

I am truly honored to say that I was asked by Patricia Bolton to contribute some work for publication in the June July issue of Quilting Arts magazine. It is the only quilting magazine that I actually receive at home. I have learned so much from the contributing artists. I keep them all and refer to them constantly.

So keep an eye out for me next issue.

Trunk show SAQA NY

I had a fabulous first experience of a trunk show with 11 SAQA artists meeting in Ithaca,NY. I now have new friends and got to see some wonderful art. I am always amazed at the creativity that is within us. They had good solutions to a variety of questions about the artwork there. I will not hesitate to ask them when I need that kind help. I love meeting strong women who can laugh and appreciate each other. I look forward to more of the same type of get togethers. I know it helps to keep me inspired.
