POETRY AND CLOTH

Lovely show at the Rogue Gallery in downtown Medford tonight. Fiber artists - you should be proud!

ITS IN THE DETAILS

The patterns and designs in clothing from Latin America represent individual villages/origins. Here is a sun motif typical of Chichicastenango in Guatemala. I used the book "Threads of Identity: Maya Costume of the 1960's in Highland Guatemala" by Patricia B. Altman and Caroline D. West as a reference.

RELAXATION

Last weekend we went camping at Union Creek. There is nothing more relaxing than swinging in the hammock with a good book, the sun filtering through the canopy of trees.

PATRIOTIC DYEING

My friend Kathy wanted to make some 4th of July tee shirts for her grandkids in Virginia. They really turned out great!
