I made 4 element dresses, air, water, earth, sky. A slightly selfish symbol of the clothing I used to sew. Old habits don't die, they just become art pieces. I enjoyed making them, and breaking away from squares and rectangles. I'm exploring the art quilt/sculpture form, I love the idea of it.
"My air dress" wonderful hand dyed fabrics and ribbons.
I really enjoyed working on this show. To anyone who is in a show, START EARLY! It takes 10x more time than you think in will to do. On top of that, I broke my ankle in early October, so I was becoming quite clever at scooting around my chair from easel to work table. I was not quite done hanging when I took these, no tags etc.. but I have a tendency to forget to take the pictures. All pieces are for sale and will hang all January at the FCCA.

that does look like a lot of work-and with a broken ankle! yikes!
i think that the 10x time markup is a very good point.
enjoy your opening and best wishes for some great sales!
Your earth dress is amazing!
