Going to Rio!

Rio Patchwork Show in Rio de Janeiro

leafI was invited to show two pieces, Leaf Vessel and Can I Help You?,  in the Rio Patchwork Design Show in Brazil this year. The organizers of the show have a strong desire to introduce their local quilters to art quilts. Through their research they found CQA and invited a number of members to participate in the show. They did a beautiful job with the display of the artwork and the show will travel to two other cities in Brazil.

I was amazed to find out that I won the audience choice award for Leaf Vessel which means I’ll be traveling down to Rio next June to present at the 2011 show! How about that?
