Amazing Virtual Tour AQIPP

 I received this link today: AQIPP 2021

The AQIPP show is at the Box Hill Town Hall, not far away. I will try to see it in person soon.

Here is a screen shot of my piece, from the virtual tour.

Mine is the middle one, of course, the one you can see all of. 
I don't know that names of the other artists, hopefully I can find out when I visit. 

The virtual tour is amazing - how much has technology advanced in our lives recently?? And how much have we learnt to use it? It has allowed people to attend events that they otherwise would not have seen. Today I attended a Zoom meeting for our local tapestry weaving group and one person was in NSW, she is very unlikely to be able to get to our small in person meetings. 

I also got to the Handweavers and Spinners Guild to pick up my tapestry from the Bendigo Wool show, which was cancelled the day before the public could go, in June or July (it is so long ago that I can't remember). 

There was a certificate and ribbon with it - very pleasing.

Moving Right Along

After taking down our work from the Graduate Exhibition, a friend and I went to the quilt exhibition at Box Hill Town Hall.  It is in the Whitehorse Art Space.  It is an exhibition convened by the Australian Quilters Association (Victoria), the exhibition is called Quilts in Public Places and the theme was Forest Threads.
There was a whole range of techniques, sizes and interpretations.  We had a lovely time looking at them, drinking a cup of tea provided in the space and then voting for our favourites.  It is a lovely venue, one I visited last year for the same event.

The exhibition is on till December 21st and you can see some of the artists working on Saturdays at 2.00pm.
While we were there a professional photographer was taking photos of the quilts and they should be online in a while.  I look forward to seeing them then too.
