Around the Block art stroll set for Saturday

Folks in Sisters will get an early taste of the art and craft of quilting at the Around the Block Fiber Arts Stroll and Quilt Show Preview on Saturday, July 2, from 4 to 7:30 p.m.

The stroll through local businesses will focus on fiber arts and artists from Central Oregon and beyond.

Attendees should expect a “sneak preview” of three of the July 9 Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show’s special exhibits: Featured quilter Jan Lau of Redmond, art quilts from Six of One and Quilts from the Bahamas as shown by Kimberly Roberts.

In addition there will be demonstrations of quilting techniques, spinning, weaving, marbleizing and dying techniques, basketry, multi-media fiber art and others.

Many of the artists will be on hand to discuss their artwork and they will have some pieces for sale.
