Joke Buursma Red Earth I travelled in August to South Africa. One of the things that struck me was the beauty of the deep red of the earth.
Rx for a Long Cold Winter
Guest Curator - Lesley Riley
It has been a long, cold, wet and snowy winter for so many of us. After weeks of white, now all I see is brown when I look outside my window. I need color!
I found the cure to what ails me while curating this month's SAQA gallery. Interestingly enought, both "cure" and "curate" mean to take care of. There is no doubt that quilting takes care of us in so many ways, especially cabin fever.
A little dose of color does brighten your day. I cannot help but smile when I see the joy expressed in the colors of these quilts.
Take a look! They are sure to put a spring in your step.
