My Brother's Threads at the New York State Museum


In 2007 Harlem Needle Arts presented My Brother's Threads at Lincoln Center's Cork Gallery. This textile exhibit in tribute to men and fiber work can now be seen at the New York State Museum in Albany, NY. Featured are the work of male fiber artisans and fiber art that features male subjects. My quilt titled "When Old School Was Young" can be seen along with "Harold in the Moment" and "The Liberation of Yellow Bill". My Brother's threads and a quilt exhibit titled "Syncapated Threads: Quilting in the Jazz Tradition" can both be viewed at the NYSM through March 2009.

Another Blog

http://fiberfabulosity.blogspot.com/
This blog will be in addition to this one and will chronicle some of my crochet and knitting escapades and highlight artwork and items that are available in my gallery. I am also working on an official website but that has not gone as smoothly as I planned. Not unusual for a slightly technically challenged diva but I am working on digitally improving myself all the time. If you have a moment please check out. the new blog. Any one thinking of having a website might want to get their feet wet with a blog. They are a cost effective and a some what easy way of having a presence on the web for just about anything.
