The more I see and learn about boro, the more intriguing it becomes to me. <br /><br />I was in Philadelphia over the weekend to see some of the exhibits included in FiberPhiladelphia and got to see a number of Dorothy Caldwell's pieces. All stunning. <br /><br />One of the exhibits is entitled Mending = Art. Very interesting to see how the artists interpreted mending. Included was a very old, very mended and patched Japanese farmer's jacket that was exquisite...a wonderful example of boro. I fairly drooled over it. <br /><br />Thank you for this post.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927317459104273331noreply@blogger.com
