Does It Still Work?



Wow, thanks for all the great compliments on the card. It helps to have encouragement on my design as I get ready to present it the museum curator.

However after sleeping on it, I started to doubt my little kokeshi dolls in the corner. Although they match the color scheme of the card, they aren't representative of my work in the show. PaMdora now has fans, and maybe if they see her face, they will notice the card and come to the show. So, does the design still work with the new image?

It's been an exciting week. Lots of things happening...I got a rejection letter from Crafts National on my first entry into a national multi-media show. But it was more than compensated by my acceptance letter to Quilt Visions 2006! I'd rather be in Visions anyway.

Yesterday I received an email from Alyson Stanfield that she's going to feature my quilt in her Art Marketing Newsletter on Monday. And I'm starting to get the jitters because now it's only two weeks until the Wisconsin PBS crew comes to my studio to tape for an art quilt documentary that will be released in 2007.

I like it even more with Pamdora in the corner. Her background color is similar enough to the colors in the doll quilt that it still plays against the colors of the abstract squares quilt in the lower right (something I noticed right away on the first version). But unlike the dolls, Pamdora is looking toward the other artwork,just like the woman in the piece below her (also something I noticed the first time), which I think is very cool.

Oh yes, Pamdora is better. I had to scan the original card a couple of times to find your work. Hooray on your Visions acceptance.
