The Paper Quilt Project is back! After a 2 year long haitus I am ready to get this show on the road. I am sure most of you have made up your minds that I had abandoned this project altogether, but here I am.
What happened? Well, in 2007 we had 144 artists signed up to help complete the project, but unfortunately somewhere along the way we lost the participation of a few artists. In addition, my personal life got complicated. Feeling discouraged and burnt out I decided to put the project aside when the year was over. Although I allowed myself to forget the password to the old tumblr blog, I never did forget why I started the project in the first place. So here I am, ready and willing to give it my all again.
Several quilts need replacement artists and I am now looking for 21 new artists to help fill in the gaps. As soon as we can complete each quilt, I would like to accomplish the following:
1. Find a Charity
2. Raise funds by auctioning off the quilts
3. Turn this project into a book
I will need your help. If you would like to contribute to this project in other ways than contributing art please contact me for details. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you to everyone who has participated or contributed to this project in someway.
All the best,
Dawbis
