Yesterday started with a bang! Fabric was flying and brains were buzzing.
Laura's class started with a focused huddle:

They stayed that way all morning. It looked intense! After lunch, things loosened up and everyone was busy-busy:

About 10:00, coffee and tea arrived and everyone burst out of the rooms. That Java is important business:

Part of this event's focus is the atmosphere. We want a beautiful setting to inspire the artist. I think Garland fits the bill:

More work, more learning, then lunch:

This is the girl that brought the lunch, Tracy:

We love her. We treat her nice. She brings us the food. We're aaalll about the food.
Pamela's class was hustle-hustle from the jump. They had time limits to force an spontaneous mode of working:


She did get a break, as seen here with Peg Keeney:

And Jeannie's class made a huge mess and had a great time. They moved paint and got it onto fabric in ways I never new existed:


Dig the messy hands. Now that's art!

Looks like you had fun, Cathy! I found your blog by googling corn dextrin, as I'm playing with it for the first time - even though we're both in Artful Quilters webring, I hadn't come across it before. I'm using the dextrin on an international Round Robin - nothing like jumping in the deep end!

WOW. it was a wonderful few days... lots of passion in the work, some very intense artists, great to see familiar faces and good friends.
