Talented Friends

I belong to two bees. One a primitive bee, the other a contemporary one. I aspire to be a contemporary quilter, but I'm not so sure it will ever happen. I think to make contemporary/art quilts you have to be able to think out side the box a bit farther than I can. I pretty much stay within the lines--gray is my favorite color!

Last week when the contemporary group got together there was lots of fun show and tell.



 Noreen has been really busy. The colors are great, it has spectacular quilting, and she even added red piping all the way around!
 Another of Noreen's quilts. She does fun things with curved edges.


 Judie always has a new technique she has tried! These have bits of fabric, paint, hand made stamps and quilting on  them. Then a paint medium is brushed on, resulting in a stiff piece of fabric art.(Sorry Judie, I know you didn't want to be in the picture,but I haven't figured out how to edit the photos yet)!


 Debbie has found some wonderful classes on Groupon. The mask is a mold of her face!

This a hand quilted tie quilt by Lynn.
Judi made this quilt top to donate to a church quilting group some of our members are involved in. Pretty colors.
It's always inspiring to be with these ladies. I come home, pull out my batiks, ponder on them and put them back in the bin. One of these days something will click and I will make something bright and beautiful. Until then I'm happy to be part of their group.
