NOFA Meeting February 7, 2015

Another successful Northern Ontario Fibre Artists meeting was held on Saturday, February 7th. Six members attended, Kit was unable to attend.

As usual, we had a good showing of projects – some completed, some WIPs.

We decided to hold our workshop before lunch so we could all take in the Boreal North Sculpture Association show held at the Harry Oakes Museum of Northern History. The show was amazing and featured sculptures made from every kind of material imaginable.

Karen presented our workshop which involved making paper using toilet paper over carved stamp blocks. These have a somewhat embossed look and were a lot of fun to make.

At our last meeting we made round robin quilts,  four persons worked on each quilt – you can see the progression of each quilt here.

The following photos show what everyone went home with and the finished product.

Such colourful and varied creations! I'd be interested in knowing how far you each have to travel, and how often you meet. Would love to have more companions in Central AB...
