Innovations in Textiles 8, St. Louis

Last weekend we went to St. Louis for the Innovations textile event.

Our first stop was to the Fiber Focus exhibit at Art St. Louis

We had the privilege of meeting artist Linda J. Metrick who made this beautiful woven piece.
She lives near my school and was excited that I have looms and might come in and teach my Art Club kids how to weave.

These pictures do not do the piece justice, it is pure white and woven so that it is 3 dimensional and create amazing shadows in the piece.
