Good things sometimes happen when you least expect it! On a lark I entered a quilt in a local art show, the Artist League Annual Salon at the Florida State University Gallery- Tallahassee, Fl.
The piece is called Lifeline and I had designed it a few years ago, after a year long hiatus from creating art. It represented my "lifeline" into making quilts again. Not sure why but I had never entered into into any venue until this one came around.
But much to my surprise it won 2nd place. And, it was judged against all types of art -- sculpture, painting, etc.....
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - wonderful quilt! That life line really calls to me. Maybe it's the brilliant blue against the neutrals? Or the meandering path it travels? I don't know, except that I think it's a winner!
