Hi Friends! Just coming to after a whirling first quarter of this year... The first couple of months marked the first time seeing all of my stitched portraits together in one place. The pieces were all shown at the Aviary Gallery in Jamaica Plain, MA.
On the night we finished hanging all of them, I made a little gulp and felt like another level of the project had been completed. Here are some images:

Stitched Deaths: Anne Sexton
(d. Oct. 4, 1974)
Left behind on the gate of the Jamaica Plain branch of the Boston Public Library after a performance at the Aviary Gallery in homage to the poet.
Quote is from "Letter Written on a Ferry Crossing Long Island Sound"
"I am surprised to see/that the ocean is still going on"
