I seem to recall that I had initially set the goal of posting here every week. Well, it didn’t take too long for that to go out the window!
In all honestly, I did create a playlist on YouTube last week that I had intended to post here and after I put it together, I sat back and promptly forgot. So, I will post it now and let you know that I chose videos of other fiber art reefs to show folks how your donations all go together to create one installation. I have had questions from crafters whether they should create one item or create an installation ready chunk of corals connected together and I would encourage you to keep your donations singular unless your desire is to create a large piece that is it’s own “ecosystem”. Having individual pieces of corals will allow us to manipulate them into the best place in the reef for their design and color.
I am starting to receive shipments of corals and critters from organizations and individuals and it is so exciting to open the boxes and see the wonderful things that you have been creating. Thank you!
Don’t forget, if you are in the Eugene, OR area next Saturday, stop by the Eugene Textile Center between 10-3 for inspiration and a chance to ask questions or to just sit and craft with us. Hope to see you there!
