 |  We are so happy to include two artists this week in the Fiber Artists category at SOAR. There is so much beautiful fiber art being produced here and this category has been sadly under-represented, but now we’re beginning to see some of the diversity of Southern Oregon’s offerings in this wonderful genre. Laura Lawrence’s My Dancing Threads is a great example of this work, and we’re delighted to welcome her to SOAR’s online community of southern Oregon artists.  We are delighted to welcome Jo Ann and her Dreamweaving Designs to the Wearable Art and Fiber Artists categories of the Lifestyle Artist directories at the Southern Oregon Artists Resource! Please help us welcome her by sharing and commenting on this post or viewing and sharing her listing.
