I have most recently completed a fiber art postcard entitled “Harmony.”

 

This piece was donated to Fiberart For A Cause, a fundraising project for the American Cancer Society.  All donated art postcards will be sold at the 2006 International Quilt Festival in Houston, November 2-5. Although this is the first postcard I’ve made, I can’t wait to make some more!

Post #1!

Let me begin by introducing myself.  I’m Jennie, I’m an artist, and this is my blog.  If you want to know a little bit more about me, you can read my artist bio.  If you want to know a lot more about me, well then, hang around and keep reading, I expect over the next few hundred blog entries to come you’ll get to know more about me than you’ll want to know.  In fact, I’m hoping I’ll get to know more about me, too. 

As it currently says up there at the top of the page, I’m a fiber artist.  If you don’t know what that means you’ll have to stick around and see.  2006 has been tremendously challenging, albeit a stellar year for me artistically.  A year ago I could not say with confidence, “I’m an artist.”  Now, I think I’m ready to share not only my continued growth, but my past projects.  Please forgive me for some of those.  Some of them are not art.  But they were necessary to get where I am today…on the right path to being a real artist. 

So anyway, welcome to my blog.
