Could this be a beginning of sharing techniques?
Perhaps this group sharing could help us break out of our usual ways of quilting?
Could we possibly do workshops together?
Maybe we could share what some of us already know.
Maybe we could pool resources and hire a workshop leader.
It’s exciting to see others’ work and hear about each others’ journeys.
Lets meet regularly with challenges in between.
A few other groups could form with possible input from MQA on “how we did/do it”. Perhaps there could be sub-groups based on geographic closeness
The already established, blog could be a place to share photos and information.
The blog and email could “fill the gap” between meetings of the larger group.
There is interest in another Art Quilt group forming. We have a list of potential members who want to start another group and Catherine Reed will explore future meetings.
Next meeting of the large Art Quilt Explorations group is:
APRIL 7TH @ 7PM. Location to be decided.
