| “Salsa” by Christina Fairley Erickson Freehand Machine Embroidery, decorative stitching, freemotion quilting, trapunto |

| Fiber Art exhibit at the Schack Art Center |
It’s been a tough week. Of course, completing my “Salsa” quilt and getting it entered in the Contemporary QuiltArt Association’s (CQA) show (of the same name… Salsa), is a big achievement. But perhaps it’s a bit of a let-down too… I’ve put so much effort into this piece I’m not quite sure where to go from here. I apologize for being offline this week- between taxes being due, having lots of work to get ready for the jury process for the Salsa show, and feeling a bit under the weather a couple days, I just didn’t get much time at the computer. I’ll work at doing better over the next week.
