The Pointless Sisters
The Pointless Sisters, an open mini-group of the guild that focuses on art and contemporary quilt making, is busy and having fun as always! At present, we are working on coordinating a Pointless Sisters art quilt show at the Rincon Valley Regional Library which will run from March 7 to May 7, 2006. We are also busy creating next year’s art opportunity quilt to contribute to the guild’s fundraising. This quilt will involve some fun fabric painting techniques so we are enjoying learning how to use the various paints and working on components of the quilt together. We also have our usual Pointless Sisters challenge in the works, with members’ challenge quilts to be revealed at our March meeting. This year’s challenge is to make a quilt using ONLY muslin! We can paint, dye, embellish, color, or treat the muslin any way we want for our creation, but we have to start with bleached muslin. We’re stretching ourselves and exploring our creativity and doing a lot of laughing along the way.
The Pointless Sisters mini-group is open to any guild member. Please come check us out! We meet on the 4th Tuesday of each month from 10am to noon at the Luther Burbank Art and Garden Center. Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, February 27, 2007. Call or email Diane Hock or Linda Hemenway if you have any questions.
