December meeting

We had a great meeting with lots of enthusiasm shown!  A bit chaotic at times but everyone was inspired and participating.

Brigitte treated us to Christmas cookies too.  Thanks so much, Brigitte.  They were very tasty.

Betty showed us her name in Chinese characters, it could be made into an interesting chop for signing your work.

Betty's post card challenge was a hit with quite a few lovely pieces to show.  Betty turned hers into an artist trading card sized key chain.  Elisabeth made a few gift tags.  And well, Sandie has been very busy and along with postcards brought along two pieces she did for a different challenge.  In that one she had 3 prompts, Red-Violet, Shape and Fracture It.  Well done everyone!

Symmetry

We did a recap of Symmetry so far.  Cathy will be back in January to move the discussion along.  These are from her workbook.


We decided that the Symmetry pieces for ArtWalk would be a 120 inch maximum circumference.

We were reminded that we are not limited to quilt blocks.  We can use neutrals to make a background, cut them up to make an image or......................?














Linda brought along her paper patterns.




A good source of inspiration!




Our January meeting is on the 14th and Brigitte is doing JOLTZ.

We do need more volunteers for the next few months.

If time allows we will play with some foiling at the January meeting.  Love shiny!
