    Default OPB Oregon Art Beat Artist

    I watched a segment that broadcast tonight on Oregon Public Broadcast about a textile artist who uses olde linens and quilts to make garments. When she spoke about her use of old damaged quilts and linens to make garments, she spoke with reverence of the women who made the old quilts or linens that she is using. I just thought it may be a story many here would enjoy seeing. Her name is Joanne Kliejunas.

    I don't know exactly how this will post and wasn't really sure where to post the link but it is below. I hope you enjoy watching the story as much as I did. If I put it in the wrong place I apologize and figure someone will move it.

    If it doesn't link, just copy and paste it should take you to it.
