"Chair-ity" for Art-a-licious




The Lenawee Council for the Visual Arts hosts an annual art event in September. People in the community are asked to decorate a chair to auction off and raise funds. This is the second year I have participated in designing a chair. I wish I had taken a picture of last year's chair. I guess I was feeling kinda insecure about my work. It was a really nice little chair (painted in apple colors -red, green and yellow); I shouldn't have felt inadequate. Anyway the chair above is this years contribution. I quilted the top using rag ball strips made by my grandmother. I love this chair and it has a wonderful story behind it. I hope it will find an appreciative home.
