California Poppy Transfer Design

It has been a busy, busy 6 weeks....but with good results.  Both of the pilot classes went well.  Of course there are still revisions to be made, but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and the projects.

And during the time between the two pilots I received a call from the selection commitee accepting the two proposals I have previously shown here:  Leaf Collage (as a 3-day class) and Color Kaleidoscope (as a 2-day class).  I am very excited about both of them and will be completing the stitching on both upon my return from my next teaching trip....back home on April 21st.   Both of the pilots have already been scheduled and have been added to my teaching schedule.                                                                           But in the meantime I am finishing up the stitching on a small design I will be using for a new "guild" class.  Previously I have not had a good topic for short guild meetings so I'm very happy to now be able to share these techniques in this format.  This design (interesting border pattern, don't you think?) uses the same technique as I desribed in my blog entry of Sept. 13, 2009, and Leslie Riley's Transfer Artist Paper.  Also as part of the short class, the students will each transfer their own design and then we will review the sketch technique and the border designs.  Each student will have the choice of a leaf or this California Poppy design. 

Happy Easter to everyone!
