Fiber Art in Melbourne, FL

The public library in Eau Gallie, (Melbourne) FL has beautiful views of the Indian River, and now, beautiful views of  art made by the Dirty Dozen Fiber Artists.  (She says unashamedly.)

Here are some more photos of the exhibit.

Pieces on this wall (starting top left and going clockwise) were make by Dij Pacarro, Susan Rienzo, Terri, Drake, and Jill Brown.

One of the spaces available to us was a small study room.  Unfortunately, we had to hang the work while a tutoring session was going on!  Thankfully, they were very gracious (and complimentary.)

The wall and door have large glass panels so people can see in, but that glass made it hard to get a good photo without a reflection.  Here’s my best shot.

Clockwise from the people on the right, these quilts were made by me, Laura Ruiz, Laura again on the barely visible piece, and Dij Pacarro for the last two.

You wouldn’t think the copy corner was a great place to display art, but it was one of the larger spaces and very visible.

The left side of the wall is shown above.  Starting with the wolf and going clockwise, these were made by Terri Drake, Gabriele DiTota, Elizabeth King, and Gabriele again.

The right side of the wall is shown below.  The smallest quilt  was made by Elizabeth King, and I made the other two.

A pretty great display, right?  I’m SO delighted to be part of this group.  We learn from one another, challenge one another, and have fun doing it!

The exhibit will be up through August 30th.  I hope you get to see it.  Here’s the info: Eau Gallie Public Library, 1521 Pineapple Ave., Melbourne, FL.  It’s open every day except Sunday.  See full hours in previous post.
