			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday I went to the Packwood quilt show with my friend, Phyllis and my husband.  The day couldn&#8217;t have been nicer for a drive.  There were a little over a hundred quilts.  This show is put together by a few interested ladies&#8211;not even a real quilt guild.  They do it on the even numbered years and do a quilt retreat on the odd years.  I was again amazed at the variety and quality of the quilts.  This show will be moving to October in 2014 with the retreat in October 2013.</p>
<p>There is also a new quilt shop in Packwood.  It is located  inside the liquor store.  I didn&#8217;t write down the name of the shop, but did find out that it will be open 10-6 seven days a week.  So if you&#8217;re going over White Pass make time to stop.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A Quilted Garden</strong><br />
<strong> The Art Quilts of Ann Fahl</strong><br />
October 5—December 30, 2011</p>
<p>Ann Fahl is a prize winning art quilter and author<br />
from Racine, Wisconsin. As a beginning quilter in<br />
1978, she started out with traditional patchwork<br />
and appliqué. Her quilts have evolved into heavily<br />
embroidered pieces over a patchwork background.<br />
Ann’s joy in working with color, texture, and fiber is<br />
reflected in her quilts; they emerge from her life,<br />
surroundings and childhood memories. Much of her<br />
work includes four themes: large birds, fans,<br />
botanical imagery and the geometry of triangles.<br />
She enjoys mixing machine piecing, appliqué,<br />
embroidery, and quilting with hand beading.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Together : Canadian Fibre Artists</strong><br />
<strong>Paired with Artists of Other Media</strong></p>
<p>September 28—December 30, 2011</p>
<p>“Together” is a collaborative exhibition that pairs individuals<br />
working in textiles, quilts, and fibre with those whose mediums<br />
include paint, wood, mixed media, pottery, and glass&#8211;all of<br />
them Canadian. Some of the artists began with words or a<br />
phrase: &#8220;Orchid,&#8221; &#8220;Stone Threads,&#8221; or &#8220;Runes, Wings, &amp; Keys.&#8221;<br />
Many sought inspiration from the organic and abstract patterns<br />
found in nature and landscapes, while others deal with issues like<br />
ocean pollution, pine-beetle devastation, and deforestation.<br />
This thought-provoking exhibition, years in the making, was guest<br />
-curated by Vivian Kapusta.</p>
