Today’s meeting was a very interesting talk by Anne Menary entitled Fabric of the Universe. Anne not only brought many examples of her work and a slide show of many more, but she also explained the thought behind the designs and how she planned them with paper collages. She produced a set of postcards that were made one a week over a whole year. She allowed us to handle her work and feel the effect of different techniques. I can now say I have touched the Milky Way.
A fascinating talk by Lis today. We all learned something and I now know how to get rid of scorch marks and how to get my iron clean too.
Lis also brought some of her intricate quilts with her and told us how they were worked and what threads she used.
A really enjoyable meeting. Thanks Lis
