I am just pleased as punch to be a part of the Dinner@8 Rituals exhibit that will be premiering at the International Quilt Festival in Long Beach on Thursday,July 26th at 5:00pm for Preview Night.  Sponsored by Moore’s Sewing Centers the exhibit will be on display throughout the weekend,opening at 10:00am each day at the  Long Beach Convention Center.    The exhibit then travels on to Houton where it will be on display at International Quilt Market (Oct 27-29) and Festival (Oct 31-Nov 4) and is sponsored by Havel’s Sewing.

Artists statement:Rituals bring order to the chaos of everyday living and give us the opportunity to be still and appreciate that moment. They are the threads of our memories,that bind and connect us to the past,make us stop and appreciate the present and ease our transition into tomorrow.

If you can’t make it to either of the exhibits, Loris Bogue created a book of all of the pieces in the exhibit:

Each of the pieces in the exhibit is shown in full along with a detail shot along side a short interview with each artists so that you can learn more about each one.  It’s a beautiful book and I’m thrilled to be included in it’s pages.  You can take a look inside the book here.
