Show Opening today

My wife, Becky Heavner, is well known as an illustrator, but she is also a passionate quilter. A new show of her quilts is opening today at the 233-One gallery, 301 King Street in Alexandria (Enter through Room 2300). She is showing among other things, a fabulous bear claw quilt and several mixed media quilts.

It's really fascinating to see how she 'draws' with fabric, keeping some elements of her painting but also with an interest in the tradition of quilting. The show opens at 3 PM and will be up for about a month.
