From our member Carroll Lee Stolz:
At the Dixie Quilt Guild
meeting last Saturday, I was approached by Doreen Kincaid, quilter
and artist from Mesquite, NV. She asked me to invite fiber artists
to apply to the Mesquite Fine Arts Gallery for an exhibit to
take place beginning November 6, 2017. The exhibition
is called "Lucky Thirteen", and requisites for submission
include a small finished size; "Maximum size 13" x 13" x 5" deep,
including frame. (Please see the information page for the
entire requirements for submission). There are nice
cash awards, too!
In our quest for Fiber Art and
Quilted Art to be recognized and exhibited as fine art, it would be
wonderful to have members of our club submit to this event. Doreen
is encouraging that particular gallery
to include "FABRIC" art in their exhibits, and
now is our opportunity!

I am sure many of us already
have pieces of the small required size. If not, the size allows for
quick design and execution. We could maybe even think of finishing
the piece you made in our last workshop meeting with the
water-soluble crayons!!
