Blending Poetry and Cloth - News / Updates / Schedule

Leotie Richards & Jean Wells 4/27/16

New Additions To The Exhibit:
In looking at our database we recently discovered that a few of the quilts were left off the list of accepted quilts. We deeply regret this error and are doing our best to correct it. We will now be adding seven new quilts to the exhibit in time for The Rogue Gallery opening.  We will also be printing an insert for the exhibit brochure that will feature the following artists and their quilts: Judith Quinn Garnett - “Explorations”, Judy Peterson - “Homage to the Dead”, Karen Spencer - “here, there & everywhere”, Karen Bates - “And you?”, Bevalee Runner -  “A Time For Every Purpose Under Heaven”, Toni Smith, “Connections” and Diane Born – “The Joy of Summer.”

Volunteers Needed:
Volunteers run all SAQA regional exhibits. Leotie has made one trip to Medford and is planning to make another for the reception. Jean Wells will deliver the quilts to The Rogue Gallery, Medford on or before May 27th, 2016. It would be great if someone could meet her halfway on the route to Medford. We need a volunteer for the following:
• Pickup quilts at The Rogue Gallery on July 29th, 2016 deliver back to Sisters, OR.
Please email Leotie Richards lotidesignworks@gmail.com or Jean Wells jean@stitchinpost.com to commit to the above tasks.
