argosFor the first time since 2004, a weaving judge has awarded my work a placement. Of course it figures that it wouldn't be the serious effort of the purple onion piece, or the deliberate simplicity of the rustic scarf. I got the third in tapestries and wall hangings for the "Homage to the Cat in the Hat," an afterthought tossed off in one weekend because I could do it and was entitled to one more entry for my basic member's fee.
Funny. As a writer, 'Tivo has trouble understanding editors. As an artist and craftsperson, I have trouble understanding judges and committees. It's not that there were only three entries in the category, either. I thought to check on that. Can't wait to see the judge's comments. They ought to be amusing at least.
Not that I think the piece is bad. It's technically pretty decent and consistent, meets the requirements for the class, and so forth. But had I been the judge, I doubt it would have gotten a placement. ;p
