The trade is made
I met the artist Raegan Little this past weekend and we swapped our art pieces. It turns out she is not a young artist but has been working on her BFA for eight years while working and raising a family. RESPECT! Her call to exchange art on Instagram is her final project. Such a clever idea! Seeing Raegan's hanky embroidered with the word Panky really did make me laugh out loud. I chose a vintage quilt block embroidered by Aunt Pat in response to Raegan's piece. I embroidered LOL in sparkly threads liking the contradictory styles. This was a fun way for me to use and honour the work of Aunt Pat. I think she would be thrilled to know that her work is hanging in an art gallery at U of W. Thanks to my sweet cousin Laurie for gifting me with this treasure.
