Stunning! I realized later that I didn't get any of the handspun photographed. Spinning was a new category this year and there weren't a lot of entries. I expect that to change in 2012. What it means though, is more opportunities for all fiber artists to join in!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26055463.post-25017318934660560132010-10-25T23:12:46.123-05:002010-10-25T23:12:46.123-05:00What an unbelievable offering of fibery things.

It's too bad we can't bank the energy that comes from a collection like that. Thanks for sharing it.

This is the only show that I know of, where all entries are accepted. Most other shows require pieces to be juried in, but the BRFS accepts and shows them all. It's a great opportunity to show off one's work.Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26055463.post-8251554201625671612010-10-08T17:23:32.223-05:002010-10-08T17:23:32.223-05:00wow, I can't believe that some of those entrie...wow, I can't believe that some of those entries are handwoven! the book and also the eternal love wedding garment - and the sunflower! fantastic stuff - I'd never have the confidence to enter, if the level of craftmanship was that high! thanks for the photos!Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.com
