Detail from "Diva in the Making" by Eileen Wintemute

My Attitudes! exhibit will be in Virginia next, at the Mancuso Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival. This show is next weekend! The exhibit can be seen from Thursday, February 22 through Sunday, February 25, 2018. 

The Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival is held at the Hampton Roads Convention Center located at 1610 Coliseum Drive, Hampton, Virginia. 

I hope you have a chance to see it! Thanks to Mancuso for this opportunity and thanks for visiting my blog!

New Project - Diva in the Making!

Shannon

This is a picture of one of my nieces, Shannon. She was about 3 or 4 years old, I think, in this picture. I have always loved it - her posture, the over-sized glasses, the cool jeans and belt, and her feet that still have baby fat on them!

So my next project is to make a fiber art piece based on this photograph. I did a line drawing tracing from the photograph, and then I enlarged this line drawing to my desired finished size, which is about 25 inches high.

The enlarged drawing is what I use for patterns for the fabrics for my art quilts. I'll show more of that in the next few posts. Thanks for visiting my blog!
