What a busy and exciting 3 days we have had in the textiles studio at the college.
On Thursday students turned up with rubber gloves and gave the studio a thorough clean.
On Friday morning they finished off their boards displaying their work and set up the studio.
I set up a table where I would do demos on the Saturday
The crowds came on Friday night.
Some members of the Mark Making Class of winter 2011 - me, Kati Akhavan, Sarah McLaren, Garland Fong, Esther Paterson.
College President Prof. Peter Such presented Jo Ann Allen with a Fine Arts Textiles Certificate.
The textiles program began November 2010 and Jo Ann is the first person to be awarded this certificate.
Barbara Gilbert, also a VCA student, and here representing the Embroiderer's Guild of Victoria, congratulates Jo Ann on behalf of the guild.
Well done Jo Ann. We are all very proud of you.
