Fuller Craft Museum

Last Saturday I took my friend Janet to the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton, MA. She is a crochet artist extraordinaire.



The gateway to the actual museum is lovely. Even in the brown mud season of this month!


We both wanted to see the Crocheted Prayer rugs by Xeonibia Bailey. Three exhibits were breathtaking.









This is Janet creating a crochet Mandela to add to the crochet exhibit.



The teapot exhibit was fabulous. My friend, Irene Reed, created two of the teapots in this exhibit.

After we visited the exhibits we shopped the Wearable Art Sale. Such gorgeous and reasonably priced things. It was a very inspiring visit.

Following our museum tour, we ate lunch at the "Not our Usual Joes". Then on to Boston.

Our destination was the Fort Point Arts Center. After riding around South Boston and within 1 mile of the same area for an hour looking for it- yes, we asked three cops and no one knew where it was - we parked the car.

The Children's Museum was very busy. We checked out the recycle shop. No great finds that day. Headed off to Trader Joe's and home. It was a very fun day.
