High on Hooking’s got a little problem. We’re supposed to be in two places at once tomorrow night. We’ll actually be at the Fall Fiber Fiesta in Santa Fe. In fact, we’ll be there till Sunday evening. Fortunately, this show, “What is holiness?” at the Santa Maria de la Vida Abbey in Albuquerque WHICH OPENS TOMORROW runs till December 13. My piece “Sacred Life” was juried in. Maybe we can go together?
Much excitement going on in our little fiber art world here these days. How about yours?
I’m busy, busy finishing up rugs for this weekend’s annual Fall Fiber Fiesta at Santa Fe‘s Scottish Rite Temple. Unlike Albuquerque’s biennial Fiber Arts Fiesta which is primarily educational in nature, this event brings you items for sale: hooked rugs (!); felted objects; knitted and crocheted items; yarns (you supply the creativity when you get home); Navajo rugs; woven creations to wear; and so on.
Saturday and Sunday are free. Friday night’s Artists’ Reception will cost you $10, but then you have first dibs on…everything! Plus there will be live music, a silent auction, eats, and drinks. See more info on the card below. LOTS of info can be found on Espanola Valley Fiber Arts Center’s website here.
Hope to see you at Fall Fiber Arts Fiesta. In fact, if you mention this blog post, you can take 10% off any of High on Hooking’s rugs! Did I mention that this is an excellent opportunity to shop for those upcoming holidays?
Once again it’s time for the HIGH DESERT STUDIO TOUR in Albuquerque. And once again Dagmar of ZIA WOOLZ has generously invited myself and Sarah of SOUTHWEST SUNFLOWER POTTERY into her home and studio to participate in the tour. I, in turn, invite you to come sip a cup of mulled cider and chat whilst perusing the hand-dyed yarns, fabulous pottery, and of course, hooked rugs.
You’ll find us at 13701 Elena Gallegos NE, Highlands, of High Desert in Albuquerque.
Mention this post and get 10% off a rug. That’ll ensure that you and I can both buy some yarn and maybe a mug. 🙂
Now ogle some of the wares available for purchase on Saturday. 🙂
