March Meeting!

Our March meeting was fabulous. We unveiled some of the quilts for our "Eye" challenge. Not everyone has finished their quilts (yours truly included) but the quilts that were there; finished, unfinished, and sketches of great things to come, were very impressive. At left is Kay S, Pat S, & Sandy O discussing some of Sandy's incredible work.







We had a great show and tell as well; Many people had the yarns and fabrics they dyed last month and they looked marvelous - sorry I didn't get photos of those - I spaced out!

http://www.sheepyhollowherbs.com/ is a local herb and wool farm that is owned by Jenny D. who did a great demo of Needle Felting for us. She showed us some incredible techniques for needle felting as an embellishment to our work. The wheels are spinning (so to speak) with ideas for adding this medium to our embellishment tool box.
And last, but not least - we hit the big time! This meeting was the 2nd anniversary of our group, two years have flown by and we have grown as a group and as artists. To celebrate we had cake (thanks Kay!) and a reporter from the Tri-City Times of Imlay City come and interview or group. In the March 4th edition we appeared - Cool, huh?
