Boundary Waters 9
ThreadLines 2008, including my Boundary Waters 9, will be held September 5-29 at Missouri State University Art & Design Gallery.
Juror for the exhibit was Jason Pollen, President of the Surface Design Association. Several other fiber exhibits are also being held during September in the area.
Autumn is the time for the glory of the ornamental grasses. They are such slow starters and then in the Fall when everything else has run out of gas, they send out huge or small plumes or are just gorgeous like like this Miscanthus sinensis ‘Strictus.’ This is sometimes called porcupine grass because the blades are very stiff and upright. There is another similar grass, Miscanthus sinensis ‘Zebrinus” or zebra grass, that is much softer and weeping. They are both quite tall. I have both and they absolutely glow when the sun hits them in the morning.
