Today for me was a day of beginnings and endings…
Kay Worthington and I spoke today at Chemeketa Community College at the third quilt show we have produced together. Last year we were invited by Tim Timmerman to show at George Fox University Gallery in the fall.
This year we were invited by Laura Mack and Kay Bunnenberg Boehmer to show our quilts at Chemeketa Community College’s Gretchen Schuette Gallery. The 24 quilts in the show (12 from each maker) were all made since January of 2016, and all are hand quilted.
We dropped them off a week ago and just put them on the floor in pairs for Kay BB and her assistant to hang later on…and they looked kind of pitiful lying there on the floor…
here was one hanging suggestion we had…
But by today, for the opening, they were all on the walls looking good…
we had a good crowd for our opening remarks, lots of questions and lots of enthusiasm, which made us happy, If you are out and about go take a look. It’s open until October 28…Building 3 on the campus. Closed weekends…
After grabbing a coffee (it was National Coffee Day today)…
R and I took down my paintings at the Compass Gallery at the Willamette Heritage Center, and turned off the lights…the end of a fascinating nine month experiment with Dayna Collins and Tory Brokenshire…
…and on to the next adventure…
