March Buellwood Guild Meeting 'Bulgarian Fiber Art'

Kathie introduced our guild members to a friend of hers who offered to share her collection with local Fiber Artists.

Elena Busova generously shared her Bulgarian families fiber art. Many of the examples of table cloths were woven on very large looms with many threads per inch and then beautifully embellished by hand. The women in Bulgaria spent many hours doing their projects together not having electronics to distract them. Some of the examples were framed pictures done in very fine almost cross stitch like stitches. Elena's family treasures were appreciated and envied by all in attendance. Thank you for sharing Elena.

 

 

Thank you John for taking pictures and Kathie for the summary to share on the Guilds blog. I will be back for the April Buellwood meeting and continue taking pictures and notes to share.

Remember we will be having our 'Buellwood Best' Guild project show and tell at our May meeting. Create a Fiber Art from a nature photo inspiration. It can be any fiber art using the image or just the colors from nature.
