Friends in High Places

I am so inspired by my SAQA colleagues!  Earlier today I read about Jean's recent acceptances (legion!) and her being the featured artist for a period of time online over at Empty Easel.  Now I read that Elaine's just won an Honourable Mention, and is going to be tootling off to France next spring as a featured artist -- with a teaching opportunity.  Whoa!

Time to get back to work!

Why Make?

Why do 'makers' make things -- textiles, furniture, pottery, paintings, clothing, home decor, jewellry...?  Why do you make?  Why do I?


Why I Make is a subject tackled by a number of guests posting on the American Craft magazine website.  Among them is my SAQA friend and colleague, art quilter Jean Judd.

Grab a cuppa and check out her article, and those of the other guest writers.  Have a think.  Why do you make?
