Stittsville Library Show 2020

Every year for the last few years I've organized a show at the Stittsville library for Out-of-the-Box Fibre Artists.  We hung it up today and it will be up until December 31st.  The theme this year is "2020: Year of the Pandemic."  Members were encouraged to make something related to the theme or to contribute something they made this year. Hopefully some people will be able to go and visit it.  But in case they can't here are some photos.  Here's a photo of the approach to the gallery area:

Here you come closer to it:


And from another angle:



Here's one wall of the show:


And the other wall:


A view of the glass display case showing work by Andree Faubert Ça va bien aller , Juanita Sauve Michaelmas Daisies and Rita Rottman's Live Life in Colour and Got the Blues:


Here's another shelf in the display case showing work by Olive Jones' Grape Vines on the Douro River, Garrie Bea Joyce's Within Dwells Passion and Lorraine Lacroix's Dangerous Flowers:


And the top shelf showing Suzanne Caron's The Way Forward, and Home Sweet Home by Frances Taylor:


A closer look at the pieces on the wall.  This is by Loree Tannet and is called Pennies from Heaven:

Below you see Cindy Brown's felted piece called Memories of Ireland:

The top one below is called The Journey by Anne Warburton and the below it is Country Living during a Pandemic by Roberta Russell:


Next we have  Movement in the Field by Kathy Lajeunesse and Pat Hardie's Scrappy Times below:

Next below we have Sinister Cecilia by Crystal Angers on top and a hand embroidered piece Flower Girl by Lori Savignac:


On the other wall we have a beaded piece Meredith Filshie's Silvery Reflections:


And beside it Connie ten Bruggenkate's Finding Comfort in Nature above and a beaded piece Creating Beauty and Bringing Joy by Liz Tyrwhitt.

And here are my wonderful volunteers who helped me put up the show today!:



I do encourage you to go to the library if you can because everything looks much better in person.   But if not in the meantime stay safe and well!
