More good exhibit news--Plume Poppy has been accepted into Quilts=Art=Quilts at the Schweinfurth Memorial Art Center in Auburn, NY. This prestigious exhibit of contemporary art quilts was juried by Jeanne Beck, Elizabeth Busch and Erin Wilson, and runs from October 30, 2010 to January 9, 2011.
Plume Poppy is a huge work--81"h x 74"w--with a lot of detail, and I'm so pleased that it's going to a venue where it will be properly lit and displayed. I am again contemplating a road trip....
And in the garden, my plume poppies outdid themselves this year, despite the run of dry weather late in the summer. Their huge glaucous leaves give me such a thrill, and I love their architectural presence in the garden, and the way they pop up unexpectedly from seed. I know they can run a bit too rampant in some soils, but in my heavy clay they volunteer just enough to be a pleasant surprise.

Congratulations! You are certainly on a roll! Perhaps I will see you there.
Yay! So happy for you and Martha. I was hoping to get in this year, but will have to enter some other shows. I do love the Schweinfurth show, especially after getting to visit this summer. It is a lovely venue.
Wow, you are on a roll!! Congratulations and keep up the great work.
Congratulations and Blessing to you Sue! So well deserved - The quilt is Beautiful!
