There are a number of arts & crafts guilds in the Albuquerque area. Every other year they band together and put on a Fiber Arts Festival.
I decided to go today and had a thoroughly good time. Lots of lovely fiber/textile items to look at. I bought some fat quarters and saw a friend I hadn't seen in a while.
Here are some of the fun items that were at the show. We start with a lovely hooked rug.
Then there were some kooky and fabulous dolls. This first doll was made by a member of the local doll makers guild.
This next doll is a stunner made by a man named Arley Berryhill who makes dolls professionally.
Of course there were quilts and quilted wallhangings galore. Some were traditional.
Others were more whimsical.
All in all - a fun way to spend some time at the Fairgrounds.
