A Time of Change
This blog was started (nearly 4 years ago) with the intent of providing easy access to Fiber/Textile focused opportunities for artists. There have been a few "fits and starts” along the way but we achieved our goal and even continued to evolve. The next stage of our development brings the following changes:
We now join you on the other side by becoming READERS of this fine blog. Thanks for taking the journey with us.
Cheers,
The Keeper
- The Keeper is bowing out. It's been a good run but it's time to move on to other projects. The reins have been handed over to a very good friend — Elise N. — who shall guide FACFE from this point forward.
- Fiber Art Calls for Entry shall no longer be sponsored by Art Craft Design Culture. Our friends (who are also in transition) have been very good to us. Their support has been invaluable. We thank them and wish them well.
- The focus of the blog shall remain the same but expect additions and enhancements to the overall experience.
We now join you on the other side by becoming READERS of this fine blog. Thanks for taking the journey with us.

Lulan Artisans Design Competition
Deadline: December 15, 2009 (RECEIVE) (Online)
Lulan Artisans
Design Competition
Charleston, S.C.
Note: This Competition is intended to produce designs that will be included in Lulan Artisans 2010 textile collection, as well as populate a database of Creative Commons designs that weaving cooperatives around the world can use to increase their ability to make a sustainable living and be less at risk of poverty. As set forth in detail below, the prize is the sole payment that each winner shall receive from Sponsor and each winner must agree to transfer all right, title and interest in their entry to Sponsor in exchange for receiving any prize from Sponsor. No further royalties of any kind shall be owed to any winner. If this is unacceptable to you, then do not enter this Competition.
Competition Brief (truncated)
Lulan Artisans is looking for new and innovative designs that will help Lulan to continue to stand out in the market and that will be produced using traditional techniques and construction methods. We would like designs that highlight the weavers’ skills by focusing on the “woven by hand” aspect of production while still incorporating the contemporary modern aesthetic as Lulan currently does.
Lulan is primarily interested in receiving designs that are:
Structural weaves
Ikat designs
Block-print designs
We may also consider designs that focus on:
Embroidery
Supplementary weft
Fiber content: The winning designs that will be added to Lulan Artisans’ collection will be made of organic cotton and/or linen.
Most designs may be used to create an upholstery-weight fabric, while others will be considered for lighter weight for drapery use, apparel use or throws. A variety of applications will come from each design and the differing weight of these textiles.
Schedule
The Lulan Artisans Textile Competition 2009 starts on Monday June 1, 2009 and ends on Sunday, December 15, 2009. Entries may be submitted at any time during this time period.
Winners will be notified in February 2010 and announced in March 2010.
Rules (truncated)
Eligibility: Open to entrants 18 years or older. All Entries must be the original creation of the entrant.
Judging: All entries will be judged based on the following criteria, each of which will be equally weighted: aesthetics, innovation, contemporary fit with Lulan design sensibility, durability, functionality and marketability (“Judging Criteria”).
Sponsor plans to select three winning entries, but Sponsor reserves the right to select less winners should entries not meet the judging criteria or more winners should the judges in their sole discretion decide that more than three entries meet the criteria and needs of Sponsor’s 2010 textile collection.
