July 1st will be here before we know it, and with it all the big celebrations for Canada's 150th birthday! Are you working on a special project for Canada 150? If you have been looking for a pattern for the Canada 150 logo, here it is! Click here for the pattern.
Former member Sandi MacMillan has been busy with a "Fredericton-related" project... She is part of an art quilt group in Florida where she lives for the winter. Journeys Thru Art has eight very talented members and each year they challenge themselves to do art quilts on a theme. This past year the theme was "bridges." I know you will recognize Sandi's bridge. You can see all eight bridge quilts by clicking here. These eight pieces have been submitted for jurying into the August AQS Show in Grand Rapids, MI. Not being one to take the easy route, Sandi's bridge is totally constructed of leather, and contains hundreds of tiny rivets... the photo really does not do it justice!
EDIT June 7th: The group received word today that their bridges have been accepted to AQS Grand Rapids show, August 16-19.
Their next challenge is "spirals" and once again, Sandi's piece will have a tie to our city. Can you guess what it might be?
Wow, the bridges are stupendous! Fantastic work.
