Bafa Meeting July 2019


Bafa members met and showed work related to their journal word which was Shoes in History (fig. 1-11).  Dot's Dorothy's Shoes depicted the book's silver shoes, the films red shoes and her grand-daughter's musical (she played and sang Dorothy) shoes.  Other classwork and show and tell was shown and discussed (fig. 12-16).  Photo of Christine Schmelebeck (fig. 12) shows her 50 yr. moon landing anniversary celebration outfit.  She attended celebrations at NASA Space Center, Houston.

I took a class called Strips and Curves with Maria Shell, however, what I created is what she would call a "kitchen sink" quilt.  I incorporated drawings created by my granddaughters, a flower block by Bafa member, Melissa Tweedel, and positive/negative translations of a flower I created in a previous notan exercise.  I had taken this other work to use as inspiration during the class.  When Maria saw it she said I was going rogue.  Even I thought I had
two different quilts going but in the end I could not resist going rogue. See fig. 16.
