2010
Quilt Expo en Beaujolais Two pieces Oya II, and Zenobia we shown in Lyon, France at the Quilt Expo en Beaujolais over the week of April 15-18th. An ancient wine cellar in the heart of the French wine country was used as the exhibit space creating a unique surrounding for the two award winning quilts. Include pictures of the Guards in French Uniforms at the exhibit.
Texas Fiber Arts Exhibit May 1st was the Texas Fiber Arts Exhibit at the Mexican Cultural Center Center in Austin, Texas. This was a juried show where only 50 pieces were selected from hundreds of entrys. Barbara was excited that two of her unique coats were chosen.. “The Gospel Truth” and “Piano Dancing” were both shown in a glass atrium where the overhead full natural light brought out the detail of their exceptional stitching. The colors in the Gospel Truth were highlighted by the exceptional installation which allowed the coat to rotate freely with any air movement within the atrium and the 360 degree spin showed off the viewing of both front and back panels. In 2009 the Texas Fiber Arts Exhibit in Austin featured “Big Blue” on the cover of the show catalog and shortly thereafter the piece was sold to a native Texas admirer.
