together with fiber artists and quilters to design vignettes based on their personal choices
of themes and ideas. Paintings, pottery, ceramics tilework, fabric arts and quilts will be
presented. Nineteen teams will each set up their own display. Many of the pieces will be for
sale, and this will be the first time most of the pieces are exhibited. This is also the first time

January 2011 Program

The first program of the year is on new techniques. I traveled to a Iowa Retreat and created a mixed media doll. Some of the products are great for adding texture to any art quilt as well as to use on dolls. Much to my surprise I sold the doll which I was to use in my demo, but do have a picture to share
