Women's Art Exhibit at Northern IL University

My crocheted sculpture WATER, Florina's crocheted scarves, Penny's crocheted huge granny square, and Diane's sewn apron are included in this wonderful exhibit in the Ronald Williams Library at NEIU in Chicago. The exhibit includes all sorts of wondrous art work - a breathtaking quilt, some scultures, photos, paintings, and more are on display.

Florina, Penny and Diane are/were part of a crochet group which meets at noon in the cafeteria at NEIU to crochet. Florina and Penny don't attend any more, but they are quite obviously still crocheting. Donna, Mary, Diane, Cindy are part of the group. I expect Martii to join us this coming week if her schedule permits. Donna crocheted a cup of coffee which was shown on the TV show, Knit and Crochet today. She downloaded (or is it uploaded -- or maybe side loaded..who knows) the pattern from their website. I am impressed that she undertook this and completed it by following the pattern -- i.e. without her teacher's help. She's on her way now. I wish she had displayed the cup in the woman's art exhibit, too. It is display worthy. I am so proud of her accomplishing this.
