2016 Central Texas Meetings Update
FIELD TRIP NEXT WEEK
Sherri McCauley and I are going to La Grange on Friday, February 26, to see the current exhibit at the Texas Quilt Museum and the Art in Fiber show at the Copper Shade Tree Gallery. If anyone is interested in joining us, here is the plan:
Meetup at Bucee's on Hwy 71 in Bastrop at 10:30 am. Anyone who wants to carpool is welcome to drop their car at Bucee's and ride with me. I can fit +2 comfortably or +3 with three in the backseat. Please be aware we are on no specific timeline. If you need to be home by a certain time, you can meet us at Bucee's and caravan in your own car so that you can leave when you need to.
We will make a quick stop at the Colorado Valley Quilt Guild's show at the Fayette County Fairgrounds in La Grange. Then over to the Quilt Museum where selections from SAQA's Wild Fabrications exhibit is on display along with the Modern Quilt Guild's first juried exhibit for a museum venue, the Magna Carta quilts, and selected prize winners from IQA's judged show at Festival last year. Then we'll zip up to the Copper Shade Tree Gallery in Round Top to see Ginny Eckley & Sue Ennis' quilts in The Art in Fiber show. Somewhere in there we will have lunch at a place and time to be determined.
PLEASE EMAIL ME kim@quilting-adventures.com if you want to meet me at Bucee's in Bastrop so I know to expect you!
My apologies to everyone, but I had to cancel the March 12 meeting due to a conflict with my schedule and lack of volunteers to help organize the meeting.
MAY 14 MEETING
Our May 14 meeting will be Saturday, May 14, from 10 am to 2 pm at the Texas Art League in Luling. The address is 509 E. Davis St. Thank you Kelly Allen for reserving this fantastic space for us again!
We are planning an interactive program and as soon as I have firm details, I will publish them here on the Texas Region blog and on our Facebook Events page.
ASSISTANCE NEEDED FOR FUTURE MEETINGS
I'm still looking for assistance with planning our July 9, September 10 and November 12 meetings. Do you know of a place we can meet? Would you like to host a meeting at your home? Do you know of an upcoming fiber art event or other event of interest to our membership that we can organize an outing to? Would you like to give a demo or workshop of your favorite technique? If yes, get in touch with me!
I've had several members express an interest in having another critiquing session. If you have a work(s) that you would like to get feedback on in a friendly and supportive environment, shoot me an email and I'll work on getting another session scheduled.
