Like all fiber artists and quilters, Dianne loved fabric. Over the years, she collected a wide variety of fabric from many different sources.
As a tribute to Dianne and her love for fabric and fiber art, I am trying to give Dianne's fabric to those who will put it to good use in fiber art pieces and quilts.
The stack of Dianne's fabric you see in this photo will be included in the upcoming exhibition, Mindful Landscapes, to be held in Omaha, NE. Participating artists will be invited to take a piece of the fabric to use in one of their future creations.
I have also made the fabric available to fiber artists who wish to receive a big box of her fabric for future work. So far, fabric has been sent out to 9 fiber artists. If you are a quilter or fiber artist and have interest in receiving a large USPS flat-rate box of Dianne's fabric, please email me first (kendockery@yahoo.com). If fabric is still available, you can send me a check for $18 (for the postage) and I will send you a box of her fabric.
Any fabric that is not distributed to fiber artists and quilters will be donated to The Linus Project, an organization whose members make quilts and bed clothes for orphans and children at risk.
I know that Dianne would be pleased to know that her collection of fabric is being put to good use!
