Making Progress

 Apologies that it has been so long since the ArtCGirlz  have been updated.    I missed a couple of meetings, and I think one was cancelled due to low attendance.  In my absence, no one took pictures, or maybe there was no show and tell??

But in July- those doing the slice quilt laid out their pieces, minus the two slices other members are working on  It is going to be an amazing piece when it's hung all in one place. 



Mary Kozub has once again agreed to show her micro quilting at the Museum Quilt Guild show in October.  This is the piece she will use as her demo sample. The center was pieced long ago, but Mary was still able to find all the fabrics to finish this.  :-)

Mary is working on a pattern by Laura Heine, so was cutting out some of the flowers she needs.  

 Martha took this little guy with her on vacation to Portland, OR.  It is entirely hand stitched (and Martha held her breath when she stuffed it!).  She calls him Portland.

 Chris made this for her daughter, who is a (you guessed it!) teacher.

At our August meeting, we'll be painting at the Neighborhood Art House.  There's plenty of space, if you'd like to try and paint Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss".  Cost is $35 per person.  No painting experience required, as part of the cost includes the instructor.  It's fun!
