RAFA July Meeting

Caris started off show and tell with this incredible purse that she has made.  First she felted the wool, then eco-dyed it and then constructed this elegant purse.  Below is the other side of the purse.

The handles are made from cork fabric.  Can you see the shibori on the bottom part.  Gorgeous!!

Joyce shared several of her recent pieces with us.  She has been dyeing and painting up a storm!!

Donna just did these wool scarves.  She is a champion felter but wanted to try out the acid dyes first on purchased wool so she could get a feel for the colors.  They certainly are bright.  She overlaid turquoise onto yellow with lots and lots of resists!

Loved these tees that she did by putting paint on manhole covers and then printing on the tees.  She is getting official permission from the town before she does more!

Jessie shared a whole bunch of indigo dyed fabrics that Donna did for her!

Liz s a bit obsessed with Halloween and this was her latest!!

 Regina is one of our most prolific and talented artists.  I just loved this piece.  

I loved  these next two black white and red pieces as well. This is a palette I have been drawn to lately.

Two of our group members are finalists in the Cherrywood fabric competition!  A big yeah to Ann and Elaine!!
