DeCampStudio: RAFA meeting

RAFA meeting

Today was the first meeting of the year for our RAFA (Rochester Area Fiber Artists) group, and the Show & Tell portion was the highlight.

Beth Brandkamp showed her completed Bird of Paradise quilt, which now lies flat after being spritzed and stretched.

Beth showed us the results of her first attempt at "Snow Dyeing" -- where the snow acts as a resist. It's a very nice piece, and Beth is ready to try the process again.

To see the process, check her blog at http://www.quilterb-bethsblog.blogspot.com/ .

Nancy Hicks showed the piece she made for the Women Helping Girls fundraiser.

Janet Root (who is hiding behind her quilt) showed us the baby quilt she designed and made for a friend.

In the bottom right corner of the photo you can see Deborah Pope's soft sculpture.
