It's only three weeks till Georgia Gives Day 2024! The official event is November 28th, but you can donate anytime between now and December 31st. Your contribution will build on the funds we've already raised, getting us ever closer to our overall goal of $25,000 to transform a generic building into a purpose-built textile arts center. Your monetary support will (quite literally!) Fabricate Your Future!

We'll also be holding a Giving Tuesday Sale at the SEFAA Center on November 28th. Stop in between 10 am and 4 pm for great bargains on a wide selection of textile supplies and equipment and an additional discount on all purchases (except consignment items) – 25% for individual SEFAA members and 10% for non-members. You’ll leave with fabulous finds and the warm, fuzzy feeling that comes from making a difference!

Guinan the Mother Goddess by Kim Wall, a 2022 Square Foot Fiber Art Pin Up Show winning entry. Embroidery and sewing with handspun cotton, hemp, linen, silk and wool threads/yarns and beads on fabric.

Kim says, "I took one of Hellenne Vermillion's Goddess Doll classes at SEFAA. We were encouraged to be creative and make up our own designs. I decided to embroider clothing on her. I came up with the outline of the top and skirt and then winged it! One of the last things I did was to add the hair. As I did that, I was reminded of Whoopi Goldberg's character Guinan on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Guinan was a bartender on the ship who was portrayed as a very warm and wise character...people would come to her for comfort and advice. That seemed to fit with being a Mother Goddess!"

Be on the lookout! SEFAA Board President Katrina Stone is heading up a public art project on the Peachtree Rd bridge (near the Frosty Caboose in Chamblee). Starting tomorrow and through the month of November, Katrina and her team will be using colorful paracord to depict milkweed, zinnias, cornflowers, and monarch butterflies on the 16 arched panels of the bridge. The project collaboration between the City and SEFAA.
