GreatFul Threads Re-cap July 27 in pics

August meeting will be "Landscapes".
Bring your examples and ideas for making landscapes.

July meeting was Gyotaku, the traditional Japanese art of painting fish using a real fish. No real fish were harmed in this art quilting program!

We did not use a real fish but one made from a man made substance.

Jackie had two and they both had amazing detail. This one is inked up and ready to print.

We used Speedball screen printing paint.

Brenda printed on her hand dyed fabric.

In between fish printing we stamped cards using fish stamps.

Miriam with her printed fish.

June can go home and fill in with fabric pens or paint if she chooses.

"Make Art Here", Jackie has studio space at the Cleveland Workspace. She teaches classes, look up her website and contact her for a variety of classes. 
Martha Steele is making personalized tote bags.

Martha has been productive!

You can get great detail with needle punch.

Christmas in July!

Martha won the drawing. This is a plate decoupaged with fabric and paper on the reverse side. It is functional, be sure to hand wash. 

Jackie used one of the printed fish along with other fabrics to create this great design. 

Much like potato chips, Jackie cannot stop with just one fish.
