Welcome!!

The Focus on Fibre Art Association (FFAA) is a society whose aim is “to encourage, foster and develop among the citizens of the community, excellence and appreciation of fibre as an art form”. To accomplish this we sponsor biennial juried competitions and shows of fibre art encompassing traditional rug hooking, quilting, needlework, textile design, hand knitting, weaving/tapestry, cloth dolls and wearables (clothing/accessories in any technique).

Fabric Bag: A zip bag with fabric, threads, ribbon, beads and found objects is given to one board member at the end of each meeting. She is to use materials from the bag, add some from her stash and create something for the next meeting. These 'somethings' may be any thing, any size and are displayed on the website. Examples below:
