Retreat!

We had a wonderful retreat in Tomball last month, at The Quilter's Cabin, owned and operated by Diane Anderson.  Here are a few pictures we took ...

Susan working on a deconstructed screen print.

Liz, Connie, and Mary Ann.

Connie was very prolific for the week!  Painting and soy-wax batiking.

Susan made this tiny pre-screen, which Linda coveted.

Susan used some natural elements to create this series of prints.

An April Fools' Meeting

We had our April 1, 2011 meeting at Nancy's house, which feels very "out-in-the-countryside", and is so beautifully decorated.  I thought I'd finally post some pictures, since we are getting ready to launch our official website soon.

Connie made this art quilt for her kids at the beach.

Just one example of the deconstructed screen printing that Nancy has been playing with.

A work-in-progress by Mary Ann ... an abstracted cart wheel,
from a photo taken by her husband.





Nancy was our gracious hostess for the day.

Even her Copper Pennies dish was served
with an Easter Bunny theme.

Mary Ann and Susan, getting ready to dig in.

Luscious dessert, YUM!

Connie and Liz share a laugh.

My favorite pic of Susan.
