Still in Minneapolis

A view of the American Craft Council Fine Craft Show in St.Paul, MN.
I have prolonged my stay in Minnesota to take a class with Pat Freiert. We have talked about Pat when here shibori exhibit went up. She was at the show too and said she was teaching a class on ORIGAMI SHIBORI based on a book she recently got from Japan. We both thought it could be fun and stimulating if I could stay and participate. Her classes are listed on her website.
I also met with the new events planner at the Textile Center about ARTWEAR IN MOTION 2007. They have extended the deadline for entries so you still have a chance to apply. They only accept garments, not accessories alone. The prospectus is available on line here. You can apply on line with digital images or send in slides. It does not have to be the actual garments you will send so you can send images you have then make some special outfits for October.
