Fiber Revolution show in West Windsor, NJ
On Saturday Rich and I went to the Fiber Revolution show being held until at the West Windsor Arts Center in West Windsor, NJ. It’s somewhat pathetic that I didn’t get there sooner, being it’s only about a 15 minute drive from my house. Talk about being lazy!
Poster of show.
As soon as we got to the building, Rich immediately noticed that my quilt, Circles Collide, is used for the background poster art. Carol Schepps, another Fiber Revolution artist and one of a handful of people responsible for the creation of the center (a project that she tells me went on for several years), showed me a version on the computer of what it would look like. However, seeing the actual poster was very cool.

Once inside the large room where the exhibit was being held, I immediately saw a red dot next to a small, framed work of mine for sale. It sold! There were three others from other members that also sold, which is great.
My quilt is the second from the left.
Another wall of art.
There are more images from the show on the Fiber Revolution website, here. You can read more about Fiber Revolution and see images of members’ work here. The show is open until the end of the month. If you’re in the area, you may want to check it out. More information about the West Windsor Arts Center is here.

Gloria, how does one become a member of Fiber Revolution? I looked at the links, but it wasn’t clear how one becomes a member, as well as the functions of the group itself. I am interested in more information. Thanks!

Patty, there is a waiting list for membership. You would need to submit work and be approved. There are several people on the nominating committee (I’m not one of them), and you’d need to write to one, submit your work, and be placed on a waiting list. Then, when there is an opening, the new person gets voted on. :)
