So Novembers big event was meeting all the lovely ladies at the Smart Arts 'Fabric' Group (I use the term broadly as there are many artistic and adventurous ladies so there is no limit to the wonders of fabric) This was the Christmas break up on the 19th...They (we) also planned some of the calendar events for the new year, fabric dying, fabric painting and all sorts of other product education sessions - its going to be amazing :)
For secret santa presents we were limited to $10. So I made a pouch... and then filled it with bag fixings and wrapped it in fabric :) I was happy with how it turned out.
Below are a variety of pics that I took over the afternoon... Starting with the show and tell - apologies to the ladies I was so excited I have forgotten who did what!
A picture set on canvas utilizing nature and fabric
A major hexie piece!
A series of fabric dying techniques
You rmemember the 'copper' quilt from the redlands exhibition, this is Lyn with 3 'inktense' artworks she completed in a week
There are two of these display books - one is for ADC's but I can't remember which is Helen's and which is Marianna's
The work is stunning I am truly blessed to have fallen amongst such a group of ladies, and hope that I can learn and maybe share a few things too :)
Now for the people shots....
A special cake for Betty's 80th
