Fiber Arts Building

 

 

The Fiber Arts Building is completed and the Creative Quilters, AZ Quilts for Kids, and Sunland
Weavers are moved in and the room is in use. We want to Thank Keith Haycraft and the
following volunteers for assembling and installing the quilting, ironing, and sewing tables: Ray
Sedey, Bob Riggs, Jeff Halbmaier, Kirk White, Sheldon Shaw, Tom Boub and Dennis Linders.
Major thanks to them all.

 

 

                         

Before                                   During                                     Concept

 

After a long process of obtaining a City of Mesa approvable permit, the new Fiber Arts building has been given a “Green Light” to start full construction.  Danu Construction, our general contractor, prepared the property months ago with an approved demolition permit and looking at the pictures demolition was successfully accomplished.   Danu construction is busy assembling all the sub-contractors to start the construction and we are running into the holidays, so it is a “good bet” that our building will not be completed until the new year. Just to clear things up, this is not a Fiber Optics building, but a Fiber Arts building - new home for the Quilters, Quilts of Valor, and many more sewing types of groups.   I will keep you regularly updated with future articles and pictures as progression moves along on our building!!  - Kevin Tracy, Board Member
