Cathy Crowell : Label Making Demonstration

This afternoon at Festival Headquarters Cathy Crowell demonstrated her method of making beautiful labels for quilts or mats. 

The labels look hand painted.

Cathy used the simplest of supplies with great effect.  The crowd of onlookers was wowed when she hauled out her cheese grater to speckle the background.  Fabulous!

Fibre Arts Festival Tote Bags

This year to mark the 5th anniversary, these special canvas tote bags are available for purchase at Festival Headquarters.  Made in Nova Scotia, these roomy bags are perfect for class projects.
