Northern Exposure - Small Works Small Spaces 2012

I must apologise that this blog had been dormant while the little folk in my life have occupied my time.  That does not mean I have not been admiring and making lace over the past few whiles.  Although to be honest, it is less often than I would like.

This post is about works I made for Northern Exposure - Small Works Small Spaces  June 15 - July 12 2012.  Yes, looking back, even I was astonished to find how long ago this was!

The first, a lace tree was made and placed outside The Friendship Tree.

It lasted for the duration of the festival but disappeared a couple of weeks later.  Hopefully, to be enjoyed by someone special.  I like to think it was 're-housed' by the person who hung out with me while I was installing it late one night.

The second piece created was placed higher, above the entrance to A Quirk of Fate.  Three simple pieces seemed to blend in with the facade.

So much so they were painted over when the shopfront was re-painted in 2014.  This photo was taken in November 2014 and to my knowledge the piece is still there today.
