I Have Been Profiled!

For those of you haven't yet heard the yelps of joy or seen the Facebook posts, Here is the big news from my studio! I was the profiled artist for this newest issue of Art Quilting Studio!

They contacted me several months ago, and Then interviewed me just before I headed to the Park Residency and now it is (as they say) "available at news stands everywhere!" (JoAnns and Barnes and Noble for sure!)

Ms. Freeman-Zachery was wonderful to work with and we had a great conversation about my work and Finer art in general.  From that and the photos I sent to the magazine, they created this wonderful nine page article.  If you pick it up (or sit on the bench at B+N) and read it, I hope you enjoy it!

Hi Jill,
I saw your great profile and found your website. I am a fiber artist,too-mostly rug hooking at this time. Such great quilts; I love "Fishy, Fishy" especially. I did not know that Fredricksb'g and Charlottesville had working art centers, so thanks for the info. I am in NOVA so I'll look yo up sometime.Congrats!

Barb! So glad to have you join in the fun! I love rug hooking, but have never tried it. If you are ever in the C'ville area, please do stop in. I am there most days, but if you email me in advance I will be sure to be there. And thanks for the comments about "Fishy Fishy" - one of my favorite too!

Jill, just finished reading the article on you, and here I am at your website. Love your work. Like you I am drawn to birds and trees, but mine are still a work in progress. Your work has a great sense of motion. I want to reach out and touch it.

Joanne! Thanks so much. I am not a big believer in the white gloves.... although I do appreciate if people have not just finished a PB+J sandwich before touching... So go at it!
Hope you get to see them "in person" some day; the third dimension and lighting adds a lot!
