Good news from the fine people @ Art St. Louis

This is the second time I've participated in Fiber Focus, an exhibition Art St. Louis sponsors in tandem with Innovations in Textiles, a city-wide event with exhibitions and workshops (visit: http://www.craftalliance.org/exhibits/it/IT7.htm for more information).

Well, there was the happy surprise of a Merit Award check in my PO Box yesterday (Quilting Category) for this piece.........



I've had this piece rejected from a few exhibition opps, so having it be "prize-winning" now is great, and also just goes to show you that one juror's rejection is another's prize winner!
