Home Again

The time stamp on this post is Monday, as my flight did indeed land, but at 2:45 in the morning. I started in San Francisco at 70 degrees and landed in Rochester with snow. It's a sweet landscape, transient for now, hiding the leaves I'll rake and a garden to clear. So happy to be home, and happy to have had AQT.

 

Last Look at Tahoe

 As my ride pulls up to our dorm building, I turned for a last look down the lake. I know my return to upstate New York means there will be mounds of leaves to rake, these I will leave here.

End of the Day

Toward the week's end I encourage folks to stop in and see how the room works at Art Quilt Tahoe.  Visitors appreciate we make in the short time we have.  
 

Gathering of Printers

It's hard to overstate the joy of seeing a group of people engaging in so much fun as they turn out piece after piece of printed fabric. Our walkaround of the last three days (only three!) works was eye-opening. Thank you all for sharing your talent with others, and for keeping the pace!

 

Fulll Moon for November

Circles are a common motif in print class, and this fit this month's supermoon. I'm in the thick of printing workshop, and looking forward to AQT next year. Between those dates I'll be teaching a bunch of places, most notably in Australia (for sewing and design) on online for printing. Special class online printing for Australia. See my  website www.patpauly.com/virtualclasses

 

Morning Gathering

The Art Quilt Tahoe class gathers each morning to see results of the previous day. Always very cool to hear other's take on the print. These keep getting more and more complex and wonderful. A great class and wonderful layout with room to print. 
 

Moonlight Not Necessary

The almost full moon shone on the dock below this building, and if did add to this, you couldn't tell. The top floor is where my Art Quilt Tahoe class is taking place, with the lake below. Such a beautiful place, and a setting like no others. We'll be back to printing tomorrow, for now, soak up the moonlight.
 

Setup Day

 We're mostly setup for Monday and the start of class at Art Quilt Tahoe. One person had all their gearing two slim bags. Never saw such compact packing!

Area for Installation

Christ Church is nestled close to the Rochester Contemporary Art Center where the building faces the center's modern wall. That wall is used for art installations, and if I ever get my act together, I'll submit a piece for that call. Matter of time, right?

Member's Perks

Rochester Contemporary Art Center opens its members show December 5th. Today, hundreds of artists made the trip to drop off their work, and I did the same. This is about 32" square and will be seen there till February 14. So, if you are around Rochester, take a stroll to see work, grab a coffee, and chill with art.

 

Latest for the Wall

An early morning with rain left me little light to get an image for my files. I'll put a thumbnail in a document's 'table' that'll mark the title, size, year and what else might need remembering. So, here's "Go Ask Alice" clocking in at 48.5" x 71. Not going anywhere, I'm gonna enjoy it for now.
