My Best of 2019

2019 was pretty busy!

Cents and Sensibility was accepted to Alexandria Museum of Art exhibit, Concrete and Adrift: On the Poverty Line.

Back Yard Beauty went to Mid-Alantic Quilt Festival in Pennsylvania.

Lichen hung at Bluebonnet Swamp Nature Center in Baton Rouge.



Too Raw (Too Soon Every Day to Talk About Gun Violence) was accepted to the Tom Peyton Arts Festival, and Alexandria Museum of Art September Competition, AND was awarded the purchase prize at the latter.
Feathers, Scales and Tails: Night Flight went to Quilteroo's in Ruston, La., and Bluebonnet Swamp Nature Center.



Fatsia Fantasy, Into the Woods, and Leaf Party went to the Main Library and State Archive, both in Baton Rouge.

Her Eyes as Clear as Centuries went to Sacred Threads.

 Rhumba went to the Gallery One Ellleven Annual Competition Show and won a merit award (and will be in Curated Quilts in early 2020).


L'Homme Vert du Cyprie're and The Woods Are Lovely, Dark and Deep hung at Louisiana State Arboretum in August.
Shuffle sold at the SAQA auction.

Thoughts and Prayers was accepted to Collective (In)Action exhibit at Memorial Union Gallery, NDSU


Took a class in June with Wen Redmond, about digital printing on unusual substrates, and used my new knowledge to participate in SAQA's 100 day project.



These three quilts came home after a three year tour all over the US (and Birmingham, England) as part of Fly Me To The Moon By the Light of the Silvery Moon, Moonlight Serenade, and Moonlight Sonata.


A Suitable Boy toured libraries throughout the state all year, as part of a Contemporary Fiber Artists of Louisiana books exhibit.


 Naiad and Dryad hung at the Ascension Parish Library, Dutchtown, for the month of December, as part od  SAQA regional exhibit.






I also made two quilts, a doll, and a smocked romper for my granddaughter.  I've already got plans for 2020!

Thank you!
I kept thinking of other things that happened this year, and the post kept getting longer and longer! Retirement has given me more time to work on art, and I have more plans for 2020.
