Vessels Gallery opening, November 6, 2009
My husband Fred and I made it to Boston an hour before the opening of the Clay Cloth Connection show featuring the gorgeous ceramics of my childhood friend, Eileen Braun and some of my art quilts. The show looked beautiful:
Doesn’t our work look great together?
This one is my interpretation of a photo of Eileen working at the wheel.
Bobbie Tunnard, owner and director of Vessels Gallery; me (I look a little stunned–but the necklace looks good! and Eileen)
Talented art quilter, author of The Uncommon Quilter and fellow SAQA member, Jeanne Williamson (that is her on the right) came with her friend, Merill Comeau. It was wonderful to finally meet Jeanne for the first time.
There were a fair number of people at the opening, I suspect a lot of them were my very supportive family (I am originally from the Boston area) who all came out for the occassion, after which my cousin Amy had us all at her house for dinner.
We had a great time, and lots of laughs. Thanks guys.
