Show


The Ferry Building Art Gallery is in a fabulous location- on the beach in West Vancouver.


Opening night of the show went really well. Quite a few friends and family members came out and a good time was had by all. It rained and poured and most of the pictures from that night were dark and dreary. Here's one of the good ones. My sister Maryka made the trek from Bellingham, WA to West Vancouver.
The rest of the pictures were taken on the day the show closed, when I went to pick up my work.








A quilt by Emmily Stephens. Shibori, indigo and mineral dyes.


A fabric book by Gayle Ramsden. Silkscreen, cotton, lace, knitting needles.


A weaving by Maddy Andrews. Copper wire, wool.









This is an extension of my crochet project. It turned into quite a compulsion .


Rose was weaving all week at the Silk Purse Gallery just down the lane from the Ferry Building.


And here I am with the lovely and talented Kimberly Francis, just before we took all the art off the walls.

Congrats on the show! It looks like it was fantastic and what a great location!

Not sure if I've visited and told you about this but thought you might be interested in Astrid's work, very similar to your obsession: http://astridpersons.typepad.com/astridknitsherwayout/2008/04/snb-breda-guerr.html
