There is an art gallery near me that has an open show each year, and I decided to enter.
You could place 3 entries for the same fee, so I entered “Catherine Wheel of Color”….
…. and Hiding Behind the Red…..
Since I could enter one more, I decided to throw in “Dots Down the Drain”…..
If you remember, this was my Cherrywood Challenge Entry, made during a time of intense physical and emotional exhaustion. I finally gave up on my original idea and just sewed on some dots.
AND, YOU GUESSED IT…….
The only one that was accepted was “Dot’s Down the Drain”!
I NEVER expected this quilt to see the light of day, and am thrilled that it will hang in the Lyndon House 2025 Juried Exhibition!!
Now I need to get a sleeve and label on it!!
