SAQA Anniversary Trunk Show

This is the first time I've sent a piece for the Trunk Show. Have you sent yours yet? There is still lots of time!

Did I post this upside down? Who knows, maybe it's side ways? Now to wrap it up and get it in the mail to Eileen.

Color Wheel Of Emotion

Hi all--just thought I'd share a photo of my piece that was juried into "Color Wheel Of Emotion". I was so thrilled because this is my first SAQA exhibit. It will be traveling with the Mancuso show which goes all over the US. I was beginning to think I'd never get into a SAQA exhibit; the lesson is don't give up!
I printed the image on 13x19 EQ Printables printer sheets but ended up trimming off about 4 inches. The image is two of my photos layered together. I extended the colors in the photo out using fabrics from my stash to create the area around the photo.

I'd love to see what ya'll are working on.

Trembley to participate in Omaha Fashion Week

Margie Trembley, Arkansas native, now living in Neveda, was honored to have been selected to have 8 fascinator hats modeled on presentation boxes during Omaha Fashion Week on Aug 22, one of the top ten fashion week events in the country. Her hats are all original designs and hand or machine felted using wool roving and various embellishments.

In order to participate in this event, Margie had to be interviewed by a group of highly respected fashion and style professionals from Omaha. Margie says, "Having never done anything like this before, it was a real educational experience for me. Getting the critiques afterwards gave me a great feeling and showed me areas for improvement."
