Saturday was the CQFA meeting and I actually made it! It was held in Maureen’s backyard. We sat around on outdoor chairs wearing hats and sunscreen had had our meeting. The meeting was followed by a workshop with Zoe Umholtz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There is no news on the show, but I haven’t made my piece or my book yet, so I still have time.<\/p>\n

August 2017 ATCs – CQFA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My favorite part was the ATC exchange. I had mine made from early in the year when only Bron brought ATCs. We exchanged, I made another and didn’t have to scramble to make some before the meeting. Like Amy’s Color My Quilt<\/a> piece, I need to get busy making ATCs for the October meeting. I have some schnibbles that I was eyeing the other day that might make great pieces.<\/p>\n

In order from left to right, top row: Bron, Maureen and Diane.<\/p>\n

Bottom row: Julie, Jaye, Angela, Nancy<\/p>\n

My August 2017 ATCs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I received some very nice pieces. There were two that I really wanted. I got one of them and am happy about that. Maureen (left, top) used some indigo pieces she made in a Zoe Umholtz workshop she took earlier. I think it was in honor of the workshop.<\/p>\n

Nancy did some nice threadwork (right, top).<\/p>\n

Diane (left, bottom) hasn’t been at a meeting in a long time, so it was great to see her. I saw her ATC and it made me want to pull out the others I have traded with her. She works in a similar style, so I think there would be some continuity.<\/p>\n

I like the details on Julie’s piece (bottom, right) as well. The button and the little xes are wonderful and I like the texture.<\/p>\n

I acted as workshop assistant for a few tasks, but mostly sat and knitted. I didn’t do any dyeing. Been there, done that and am happy to buy from people who enjoy it. I listened to Zoe’s introduction and watched as others folded and banded and dyed. I am also excited to see what comes out of the workshop. Julie got a lot of great photos and posted them<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
