July Meeting

Our July meeting began as usual with excitement and sharing of work in progress

Denise and Elaine share a WIP
What a beautiful sunny Summer's day at last and the room had a wonderful through breeze with all the doors open

Unpacking and more sharing

Setting up and enjoying a browse through patchwork magazines from Margaret

Some serious planning going on here...

Sylvia's jigsaw piece is amazing

Fabulous use of /expandaprint and lovely use of colour

We gathered round a few of the jigsaw pieces, to discuss the background possibilities. Jude will see what she has in stock and experiment with a block print of a jigsaw piece

Joy's piece is in a style reminiscent of the 1950's - just fabulous

Elaine's jigsaw piece in beautiful colourscheme on a fantastic frosted textured background

Lillian demonstrated paper laminating - here is Janet making her samples in the kitchen area

Close-up of Janet pushing the gel through a stencil. Some really interesting effects were created

Sylvia's embroidered collage is her WIP in Sylvia's favourite colourscheme

Janet's WIP using sheers on top of patchwork. Looks stunning
