Results Trickle In

I've started to print on used linen garments, and so far, it seems okay. They are still ho-hum to me, but I've more ideas and more to go. Definitely love the intense color, one that is part of the theme color set. Rounding out this will be pants, but that's still on the printing room table.
 

Visit to Q=A=Q

Quilts=Art=Quilts is over three decades old. This annual exhibition has a strong year this time, and I finally got to see the show today. My two pieces are visible here -- the large one greets you, the second is to the right in the far corner room. I love that you can see both, like they can take care of each other!
 

Applied Design

I've started a stack of prints that I will combine to make garments for the Beyond Fashion project. I've been given the theme "on the table" which every designer will be using. These graphics are from designs for glassware by Massimo and Lela Vegnilli. I might have to buy these tumblers.
 

Fashion Again

I'm processing fabrics from travels. Returned to the studio to get a call asking to fill in for a designer who had to drop out of the Beyond Fashion show at RIT. I accepted, and now am racing to print for the theme 'At the Table' which highlights Vignelli designed table wares. I'm taping images here to screen.

 

San Francisco After My Heart

Should I ever own a store, the front would look like this. San Francisco hold many delights with surface design, graphic design, architectural design, you name it. This 'sprout' caught my attention. Many of you who've printed with me know my love of botanical motif. I'll take this one to my screens.
 

Bit of Travel

I can't leave California spirit yet, though I'm home. An entire day was looking at art, and mainly female artists. The Mary Cassatt exhibition was at the Legion of Honor, a grand place in itself. I tried to capture the Golden Gate Bridge in my meager shot, and it'll hold the memory of that landscape.

 

Applique Stunner

I know it's unusual to post TWO photos, but this applique quilt top from Julie Silber's collection is so amazing and fascinating that I had to. It was part of the webinar that Joe Cunningham had (with me as guest) where he and Julie talk about the work (juliesilberantiquequiltstore.com). Fun to see in person!
 

Glitterati in the Hills

Part of travel is taking in the spice and flavor of the city. I was fortunate to attend an "unveiling" at the studio of Margaret Fabrizio in San Francisco. With a crowd cheering, Margaret uncovered two new works and thanked those who had gifted her diverse matrial. It was a lovely afternoon, and unexpected.

Super Moon

I'm still in the land of super everything -- sun, amusements, gardens -- and as you all know, can't get a good image of the full moon on my camera. So I offer a garden ornament from Lotusland in Santa Barbara for a fill in. Should you be near this fabulous garden, don't pass it by.
 

Saturday Webinair

 Find Joe Cunningham and moi on Joe's webinair program "Quilt Freedom" this Saturday. Find info on Joe's website under event. You'll love the workshop, vitually!

Coastline Walk

It was time to walk along the California coastline. I'm intrigued with the color pallet, and stopped to see this green showing so unusual among the sand, beige, black and white rocks. A strong palette.
