Thread Heads Exhibit at Duke Power
While teaching in SC, I got to see the “Thread Heads” exhibit, Fiber Fantasia III, at the Duke Energy Center.
Duke Energy features revolving art exhibits in their lobby. This is the third time the fiber group, Thread Heads, has shown their work.
While viewing the display, I enjoyed the company of Donna and Judy, two members of the group. Here’s Judy Rapelje with her piece, Tra La, It’s May.

This quilt has wonderful texture, with 3D flowers and leaves.
Here’s my chaufeur, Donna Barnhill, with her piece, Four Marys.
This side view shows the delicate layers of this better. Lovely!
Bonnie Ouilette is a beader extraordinaire! (Or is that “beader obsessed?”) Either way, she does amazing work, as seen in Ann’s Rookery, below. (Click the photo to see the TONS of beads!)
Jean Loussairan’s Beethoven Haus has wonderful details and depth.
There were many more nice pieces in this exhibit, but my photos didn’t come out that great. I hope you’ll get to see Fiber Fantasia III before it closes May 31st.

P.S. After viewing the exhibit, Donna and Judy took me to a wonderful dinner. Delish!
