Dyed fabrics and women coming to life

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

I wonder if the cool autumn weather has been inspiring me to work round the clock on my series. Women are appearing from both past and present. Here are a few new members of my family. Jill, Rose Wander, Leah, Rita, Amy, Sarah, and Ruchel and Mattel.

I learned today that my piece Fiddler on the Couch has been juried into Schweinfurth Art Center Quilt=Art=Quilt 2009 Exhibition. I am honored to be included in this very exciting exhibition

 

I have been working ferociously  on my Women in My Family Series and tonight decided it would be rewarding to see all of the women I have been working on, all up on my design wall. Some are complete and some are in progress. Can you see the family resemblance?
