Margaret will read her poem, "Mantles of Transformation," at the Artists Reception Jan 17 at 2-5 PM at Women's Journey in Fiber Retrospective Exhibit   (www.womensjourneysinfiber.com)

Lakeside Legacy Arts Park, 410 Country Club Road, Crystal Lake, IL www.lakesidelegacy.org
Come join us!

Check out the mantles at www.womensjourneysinfiber.com! They are awesome, incredible, beautiful, long vests of all colors and description made by women artists from the Weaver's Guild of the North Shore, The North Suburban Needle Arts Guild, and the Illinois Quilters, Inc. This retrospective show represents years of "process projects," with the artists working on a common theme every year, helping each other work through technical challenges, and each expressing their unique journey and vision. Exhibit curated by Jan Gerber.

The mantles first inspired Margaret in 2000 when displayed as part of the Fine Art of Fiber show at the Chicago Botanic Garden. The poem, "Mantles of Transformation" is included in the new full-color book on the Mantles project (www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/997073), This lush, gorgeous book was designed and edited by Jan Gerber.

Women's Journey in Fiber Retrospective Exhibit runs Jan 4-22. Don't miss this extraordinary, vibrant show!

Better and Better

Shiver of anticipation,
sliver of fear

as I await
what awaits me.

Does life, or can it
keep on

getting better
and better?

...Yes,
I choose Yes.
