For those of you who have missed the background info on this challenge, it was a crafty challenge to make a hot water bottle cover (not necessarily functional) to raise funds for the Margaret Pratt Foundation. The hotties are for sale for $50 each, and there is a vote-by-coin for your favourite hottie. Ms Curlypops was instrumental in making this challenge the overwhelming success that it is. The cause is one that is very close to home for Cam, and the massive response she received for the call-out for Hottie-challengers is testament to the love that she has spread about the blogosphere and real-life community.
Along with the AMAZING display of hotties, I was enchanted by the fabulousness in Open Drawer. It's a little slice of heaven for textile geeks like me....
...So enchanted, in fact, that I snapped away and didn't notice my "battery" light flashing on the camera.
So I didn't get any more photos of the hotties.
Just lots of felty, woven and stitched textures and colors....If you're able to pop in to see the exhibition, it's well worth the trip. Inspiring, entertaining, and heart warming.... and the range of materials, skills and techniques used is astounding. Also, make sure you spend some time in the shop downstairs, too. It's gorgeous.
