Kicking off the blog with a Bang!

    Virginia Spiegel is back in action again with her amazing Fiberart for a Cause campaign in aid of the American Cancer Society, this year under the title of Foto/Fiber 2012.  I am delighted and honored to have been asked by Virginia to participate in this project and I have a link to the site in my right hand side bar.
     Thirty Seven top fiberartists have contributed 90 Bonus packs of beautiful fiber materials, some transformed by the artists themselves, to the cause. There are links to these artists' sites so you can enjoy seeing their work and learn a bit more about them.  Many names you will recognize. Virginia  will also be holding interviews with some of the artists and showing photographs of their studios and work on her blog,  http://www.virginiaspiegel.com/blog/
     Ninety gorgeous photographs created and donated by Karen Stiehl Osborn, Virginia A. Spiegel and Cynthia Wenslow are on offer along with the Bonus fiber packs.
     Six fiber artists, Lyric Kinard, Lynn Krawczyk, Yvonne Porcella, Susan Schrott, Mary Ann Van Soest and myself have donated six wonderful fiberart pieces which will be part of a draw for the patrons participating on February 15th and 16th.
     As we draw closer to the dates, we will be showing off more of the Bonus packs which will be available and believe me, many are to drool over!  Stay tuned for more information, pictures and news and please check out the Foto/Fiber 2012 site to find out how the sale will work and to view some spectacular fibers and fiberart!  Click the logo in my side bar or the link below to go directly there.
