🎟️ The Alabama Fiber Festival Silent Auction is LIVE! 🎟️ Get ready to bid on 50+ incredible handmade items and fiber goodies donated by our amazing vendors - all in support of the Alabama Fiber Arts Foundation! 🧶 Each item has been lovingly created or contributed by our vendors. 📱 Visit alfiberfest.com/auction to browse, bid, and win! 🏆 Winning bidders can pick up their items locally, or have them shipped! 🤔 What’s a Silent Auction? A silent auction is a fun way to bid on amazing items - without the fast-talking auctioneer! Here’s how it works: - Each item has a bid sheet (or online listing) with a starting price. - You write down your bid (or enter it online) - as high as you’re willing to go! - When the auction closes, the highest bidder wins the item. It’s a great way to support the Alabama Fiber Arts Foundation and take home something special made or donated by our wonderful vendors and community members! Every bid helps us continue to grow and support fiber arts in Alabama 💕 -- 📅 Dates: Friday, November 14 - Saturday, November 15, 2025 ⏰ Festival Hours: 9 AM - 5 PM each day 📍 Location: Cahaba Brewing, 4500 5th Ave S Building C, Birmingham, AL 35222 #alfiberfest #alabamafiberfestival #fiberarts #comingsoon #market #fiberfestival #alfiberarts #alfiberartsfoundation #alabamafiberarts

We’re excited to welcome @visionsofdreamscapes to the Alabama Fiber Festival for the first time! Savvy is a multidisciplinary fiber artist whose work combines appliqué, hand stitching, machine sewing, and occasional knitting to tell vivid, textural stories. From large-scale tapestries to wearable art and costumed clothing, each piece is rich in narrative - drawing from themes of nature, poetry, introspection, and social commentary. This is fiber art that speaks - bold, beautiful, and intentional. Whether you're seeking a conversation-starting wall hanging or a statement garment, her booth will be full of magic and meaning. -- 📅 Dates: Friday, November 14 - Saturday, November 15, 2025 ⏰ Festival Hours: 9 AM - 5 PM each day 📍 Location: Cahaba Brewing, 4500 5th Ave S Building C, Birmingham, AL 35222 #alfiberfest #alabamafiberfestival #fiberarts #comingsoon #market #fiberfestival #alfiberarts #alfiberartsfoundation #alabamafiberarts
