POTLUCK, ORNAMENT EXCHANGE AND SHOW ‘N TELL

 What a fun Christmas Party, we had some wonderful food, enjoyed our ornament exchange, talked about upcoming meetings, had our silent auction, and a very interesting Show 'N Tell.




I put the recipe for the Cranberry Cheese Dip on the Recipe Page.



Silent Auction Table




Ornament Exchange

I will have to say we are a great looking group of fiber artists with very interesting little
ornaments.




















February Meeting

Priscilla will teach us Soumak weaving in February.  She brought samples and briefly explained what it involves.



         I looked for this book online, the cheapest I could find was $70.00







Show 'N Tell

Judy is busy felting anything that she can find.




Jennifer showed her stencils made from hot glue.


Jennifer highly recommends  this book and it is where she got the information
for the hot glue stencils and other printing techniques.


Jennifer also brought these samples of very fine paper used in money from Japan.






Priscilla is having so much fun with these small weavings.  Every week
she draws a technique from a card file to see what she will do. She uses black and white
and only one other color per week.



Marie has a very large list of samples of markers, paints and other media.


Patti made this Punch Needle and has gotten permission from an artist 
to use her drawings with her punch needle.

Julie brought this beautiful shawl to show us.  Mostly raw edged applique
and stitching.



Wendy modeled her quilted coat and her sparkly Christmas shirt 
that she made. The pattern for the coat is New Look 6585.




Wendy also made Christmas Cards this year. All were mailed but this
is a picture of them.
