With One Voice catalog on bestsellers page!

The With One Voice catalog has made it to the Bestseller page on Blurb!

The catalog contains individual photos and artist statements for all 101 art quilts sent in for the 2008 exhibit. Its a permanent record of the outstanding work that was put into making the exhibit a success!

If you'd like to purchase one, visit my bookstore to get a copy of your own!

With One Voice catalog available for purchase

I am extremely pleased to announce that the print catalog for With One Voice is now available for purchase.

There is a widget in the sidebar that will link you directly to the book or you can click on this link. It is printed through Blurb.com, a print on demand service with excellent quality.

The catalog contains individual photos and artist statements of all 101 art quilts sent in for the exhibit. It also includes the installation shot of the exhibit from the American Sewing Expo.

So why should you purchase the print catalog when there is also an online version? Because the online catalog will only be up for a year. Before the 2009 online catalog is posted, the online 2008 catalog will be archived. This means that the images will be restricted to a thumbnail gallery and the artist statements will no longer be available. The print catalog is your chance to have a permanent record of the exhibit!

Enjoy!

Breaking Traditions at Fabrications Retreat

With One Voice traveled to the Fabrications Retreat in Lewiston, Michigan this past weekend. The exhibit hung in the common meeting area.



The work received many compliments and was enjoyed by everyone who attended the retreat!

The exhibit is now home and will travel soon to The Carnegie Center for the Arts in Three Rivers, Michigan. Stay tuned for more photos!

something to be proud of

I just got home a little bit ago from hanging the exhibit at the American Sewing Expo. (A big thanks to Jackie and Mary for helping so much to get the exhibit up.) I have to say that I am so incredibly proud of how it looks hanging. Every artist involved deserves a big pat on the back!

The exhibit looks stunning, its very powerful and as vendors were walking by as they were setting up their booths, many paused to watch as it was going up. Its a strong statement about how much good there really is in this world.

I can't express how grateful I am to everyone involved for their time and care in helping to make this exhibit a HUGE success!!!

Congratulations everyone - we did it!
