I am in San Diego at HIE again! I drove down (2 1/2 hours) for the opening reception for the "Interpretations" exhibit which opened today. This is an International juried exhibit with 32 quilts selected by an international jury - Noriko Endo of Japan, Dena Dale Crain of Africa and Alicia Merrett of UK. They made wonderful selections and the Visions installation crew did a great job hanging the quilts to enhance our viewing pleasure. The exhibit runs through January 3, 2016, and I hope you can all get to San Diego to see it "in the fabric". There is a beautiful catalog available for $3 plus postage. Check with the Visions staff.
This is the cover of the catalog showing Betty Busby's "Mycology".
The light spot in the upper left is a reflection from the lamp in my motel room.
I tried a flash but it was even worse.
The back of the catalog shows Marianne Burr's "Eleven 3 Thirteen".
Again there is the reflection from the lamp in the upper left corner.
After the reception I was fortunate to go out to Ikiru for a late dinner with Linda Colsh and Kathleen Probst. We all had something different that has been pictured in this blog previously. Except Linda's selection of California Roll - it has never looked so good! And it was delicious.
Linda Colsh is giving a presentation tomorrow morning and I will attend that before heading home. Perhaps lunch first ... at Ikiru?
The exhibits missing from Palm Springs were also missing at PIQF. I understand the shipper was UPS! Hope they locate the palette/shipping container soon. Everyone would rather have their quilt than insurance money.
