I am so lucky to be able to set up my booth at one of several local Art/Craft Fairs in my hometown each year. I get to talk to lots of people about my art, sometimes they buy something, often they don’t, but I get lots of compliments and every once in a while, somebody really clicks with my work! As you can well imagine, this is totally awesome, and one of the main reasons I keep making my Everyday Art! Julie is one of those people. She purchased a note taker from me a year or so ago, and then a couple of going green totes (some as presents I believe…) and she was SO EXCITED to finally order a custom messenger from me! Of course, this was in the craziness before Christmas, and then I had those 2 commission quilts with had and fast deadlines, so here it’s February already – I hope it was worth the wait!

My name is Candy Glendening...and I’m addicted to color! I dye fabric so I can have just the hue & texture I want, and then use it to make art quilts and “everyday art”.
