'Tis the Season...

For the second year in a row, I'm participating in Creative Arts Workshop's Celebration of American Crafts.  This is their 49th annual show, which is a juried holiday exhibit and sale of handmade crafts by makers from New England and across the country.  The exhibit is professionally curated and staffed, and showcases makers of bold, creative, and original work who "continue to grow as artists, push the boundaries of their media, and consistently produce unique, high-quality pieces."  NICE!

Dates of the Exhibit and Sale are November 24 - December 24, 2018.

This year, I'm showing something new - Penny Pockets.  These are little zippered purses that function as a place for spare change, or a holder for a gift card for the holidays.  They're made from felted sweaters in various colors.  Each piece is completely hand-sewn and embroidered by me.

Here's a peek:


I'm dropping them off at the gallery this Saturday;  I have to admit, I miss wearing that purple sweater.  :).

Thanks for taking a look.
