And it's a good thing too- I needed all of those reminders to get it on my calendar. Will report in as I will see the show and hear her speak on Saturday.judykirpichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07444769302283667190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-4131193886757052932011-03-25T15:06:33.068-04:002011-03-25T15:06:33.068-04:00In addition to Regina's piece there was anothe...In addition to Regina's piece there was another "mainstream" artists whose work included quilt.

But you raise an interesting point. Am I talking in circles? Let me think about that.kathynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-17004158864216956072011-03-25T14:21:29.262-04:002011-03-25T14:21:29.262-04:00I just entered two pieces in a show that is always...I just entered two pieces in a show that is always just "mainstream" art. The woman who took my entry said to me..."you know the membership show is at the end of the year and you could enter that?" What do you think of that comment?<br />I said "No, I prefer to enter this show."Barbara Strobel Lardonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08314713622021695107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-73173879737835436282011-03-25T13:53:49.311-04:002011-03-25T13:53:49.311-04:00I'm afraid I don't see how a gallery's...I'm afraid I don't see how a gallery's choice of fiber art that doesn't LOOK like fiber advances the reputation of fiber art.
