Hello all you wonderful artists,
The deadline for Above and Below is fast approaching. Please bring your fiber art, ready to hang, to our August 29 meeting. I have been contacted by a reporter for the Saline Post about the show, and really want to give him a peek. If you have photos of your work, please email to me, and I will send them on. A brief description of your work and why you made it might help it get published. I will just copy and paste, so make sure you say it for the paper.
Two Twelve Arts does not mail out postcards now, due to the economy. I will have cards asap for you to mail out. They will get 500 printed, and I will get 300 of them for you to mail. I may also get a few posters. If we want to have future shows at there, we have to make a good turnout for this reception. It will be Friday, September 7, from 7 to 9 pm.
I will hang the show on Aug. 31. I could use a good eye to make it look it's best. If you want to help me, please email. It will remain up for September and October.

General fabric mayhem! Thank you sooo much, Kat, what a wonderful class!!

Our group is in the February/March 2012 issue of Quilting Arts magazine!

The article covers one of our favorite group activities - our Escape Artist Retreats. Its a really fun way to unwind with your art friends and escape from daily life.

Hope you enjoy the article! :)

Thursday, April 14, I will be teaching a class for the Monroe Quilt Guild, on how to make a sunflower art quilt. Then, in the evening I'll do a lecture and trunk show. My talk is called," Habits of a Highly Productive Quilter". I will show about 70 art quilts, or more. If you are interested in art quilts, come take a look.
