Time for our March meeting with everyone present & accounted for. Show & tell included:-
There was also this experiment with eyelets and colour with drawn thread work on a counted thread band sampler.
Libby was working on "April Showers" ready for an exhibition. Just a snippet can be seen above.
Sheila had been playing with wet liquid amber leaves on calico.
There was also experiments with shot fabric into a mini fabric quilt:-
and experiments with Markel Paintsticks:-
Robyn had begun on her new beaded rock,
as well as played with needle lace samples,
ready to work her own original design above.
Donna had been making more postcards because they are such an easy format for experimenting.
Our exercise for the day was in design. Called "Imaginative Projection", it came from a book "Design Synetics - Stimulating Creative Design" by Nicholas Roukes. We were given copies of road maps and then had to look for some kind of design in the lines of the roads, and trace them with texta. We found flowers, animals, faces, bodies etc. Here is Wendy's "Hefilant".
A good day was had by all.
