J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Just because it's Halloween, y'all! We assembled at 6:00. It was October, and the days were getting shorter. It was cooling off as the sun began to go down. A light breeze rustled the leaves on the trees outside the lot. I hoped we wouldn't be outside long. Finally, "What do you think we're going to have to do? Several kids shrugged. Evangeline offered, "Act? A little after 7, the door crea...

J. Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts: I Approve This Message
http://jbryantcampbell.blogspot.com/2012/11/i-approve-this-message.html
J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Thursday, November 1, 2012. I Approve This Message. My parents weren't buying it. As one of them noted, the Bible says to forgive; it doesn't say you have to vote for the person you forgave. I have taken my children with me to vote when possible, and explained to them what it all means. My son, who is 16, can't wait to turn 18 so he can vote. That makes me happy.

J. Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts: February 2013
http://jbryantcampbell.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Wednesday, February 13, 2013. Yes, I Can! A couple of months ago, I agreed to make a nursery wall-hanging for my cousin's great good friend, whose first baby is due later this month. My cousin didn't want anything that screamed "BABY GIRL! Instead, she envisioned elephants or giraffes, but nothing too cutesy. Then came the combined thinking and panic phase. How to arrange these animals? Would they be young animals?

J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Tuesday, September 25, 2012. Too Early for Christmas? 1 I am the first person to roll my eyes in disgust and mutter to myself when I see Christmas decorations in stores any time before Thanksgiving. 2 I have been known to mute the TV when holiday commercials air before Thanksgiving. That said, I am running a small business whose main products are handmade. I have to plan ahead. Tuesday, September 18, 2012. I grabbed th...

J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Wednesday, November 14, 2012. 6 Things I Learned at Eastern Market. I have now had three Sundays as a vendor at Eastern Market. And I'm really enjoying it. Here's what I have learned so far. 1 It's not Fenton Street. 2 People expect you to be there regularly. 3 You can eat your earnings very quickly. I'm looking at you, Pie Lady, and you, Indigo, in particular. 4 Half-spaces are fantastic. Since the market is run by th...

J. Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts: August 2012

J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Monday, August 27, 2012. Music Soothes the Savage.Fabric? A few months ago I asked the members of the QuiltArt list whether they listen to anything while they work, or if background noise is a distraction. I had been quilting along to some Run-DMC (quilting and old school rap DO go together) and just wondered what music, if any, gets other people creating. Doesn't anyone work in silence and let the work speak to them?

J. Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts: Valentine's Day
http://jbryantcampbell.blogspot.com/2013/02/valentines-day.html
J Bryant Campbell Fiber Arts. Triumphs and tragedies of an art quilter and doll maker. Monday, February 4, 2013. Remember handing out Scooby-Doo valentines in elementary school? Or cutting up doilies and using clumpy paste to make valentines for your parents? That's when Valentine's Day was simple. We all got older and it became flowers, and fancy cards, and dinner reservations, and premium candy, all of which had been marked up outrageously for the holiday. That didn't sound like much fun.
