Reminds me of former Charlestonian Leigh Alexander, a fabulous textile artist and weaver who moved to rural New Mexico, and I believe also led an organization helping local women sustain heritage weaving.
thank you for enlightening and educating us. Before IBU, I remember when Susan began her journey with textiles and introduced several of us to beautiful works from Afghanistan (and Pakistan?). I treasure the pieces i acquired that evening. How lucky is Beatrice to have you opening her eyes to the world through travel and new experiences!
I’m a faithful reader and greatly admire your work. Be well.
Thank you so much, Maria! Yes, we are fortunate to have Susan bringing the world to Charleston, and doing so with such beauty and purpose. So appreciate your support of Culture South, too!
