Pots and puzzles: Artists plan open-house sale, puzzle party

BRATTLEBORO — Fabric artist Carlene Raper and potter Teta Hilsdon team up for a fun open house and sale with Raper's puzzles, quilts, and pillows and Hilsdon's dinnerware.

Raper's home becomes a special place to shop and play on Sunday, Aug. 19, from noon to 5 p.m., at 62 Spruce St. According to a news release, visitors may play with beautifully crafted puzzles and handle the pottery until they find just the pieces to style their own dinner table.

Raper's newly released puzzle, Celebrate, is available for sale along with her prior fun and challenging puzzles, with bold colors, sturdy quality, and fantastical shapes. Quilts, pillows, and more of her fabric creations will be for sale.

Hilsdon will set the table with several of her favorite glazes on plates, bowls, tumblers and mugs in an elegant home setting. Serving bowls, platters, and other pottery will be available.

Parking is on the street. Refreshments will be served, including gluten-free. The house is wheelchair accessible. For more information visit Pots & Puzzles on Facebook, or TetaHilsdon.com, ColorQuilts.com, or email tetahilsdon@gmail.com.
