Work's been kicking my butt lately, so I'm a day or two late on posting this, but this needs to get signal boosted:
Pam Noles (who is Black, Geek, and Fine With That), has quilted the most amazing wrap skirt and is donating it to an auction for the Interstitial Arts Foundation:
In addition to being gorgeous and twirly and a genuine hand-sewn work of art, it's also inspired by a short story, "Berry Moon," by Camilla Bruce. Those of you who know me well know how much I dearly love cross-pollination like this. Songs written for poems written for artwork based on photographs. Fabric Arts made for short stories. Dancing about architecture. You know the stuff: It's wonderful, and inspiring, and it makes the world a much better place.
As if all that weren't enough, Pam will custom-size the wrap-skirt's buttonhole for you.
So what're you waiting for? Go forth and Bid! It's for a good cause!
