Another 3 Hours ....

Ok Ladies...apparently I want something that is not possible at this time. I've spent over 12 hours now doing nothing but re-doing what I've done. I don't know how to make a slide show with music and get it to Blogger. I've used Picasa, Photobucket and HP software here on my computer. I've been able to get it done but then not saved nor transferred. So the only option left is to upload the pix and let you see them. It was a fantastic experience....going to the Fiber Arts Show certainly not spending so much time trying to do something that I know can be done in significantly less time.

I'm hoping the photos load in order....if they don't....I apologize. I realize there is glare in some of the photos. Pretend you don't see it. The whole idea was to get the feel of these beautiful works of art and to hopefully inspire other artists/quilters/lovely people to continue creating new and fun things.

It is now 1:20 am....I've been working on this since 8:30. I hope you like it.....and just leave a comment saying you do even if you don't....cuz I could have sewn two outfits by now :) By the way...descriptions of the work will follow the photos....or they should :)

These are some of her vintage ribbons. They are luscious.

For some crazy reason the description is now in front of the art. So this goes with the next pix.

Good Night all....it is now 2:00 am..... If I've made any errors...I'll correct them tomorrow :)

Perrysburg Area Arts Council Presents......

Ok gals....back to the porch swing.....everyone here? Good.....now relax and sit back
Do you have your ice tea? Remember the breeze....yes....ok we are all here now....
You won't believe what I found today right here in my own town!!! A Fiber Art Show. Our Arts Council put on a Fiber Art Show at a really cool location, the 577 Foundation. The 577 is an interesting place. To learn more you can click here.
Company was coming for dinner so I had to "hurry" through the show. I figured better to see it quickly than not see it at all. There were some absolutely beautiful creations in fiber on display. I asked permission to photograph and was pleased to learn that would be OK. I just had to share this experience with all of you.

The Second Annual Fiber Art Show Sat. & Sun. May 30-31st (12-5:00)

At the 577 Foundation in Perrysburg,OH



My Viewers Choice went to "Marrakesh Espresso" by Anne French (of Toledo, OH) and Nancy Beeman (of Whitehouse, OH). I could not pull myself away from these pieces. I kept taking pictures hoping I was capturing the texture, color and shape of the pieces.




Two artists collaborated to make these pieces. So I am wondering who gets to take them home? I am definitely not for cutting the baby in half. My thoughts are to help/assist these artists by storing their work at my house where they each could visit....supervised visitation of course : ) So thoughtful of me don't you think?
I took lots of pictures at the show but don't have time just now to post all of them. I will definitely get back to posting more of the photos soon.
Devilish Smiles,
Kelly
