"IT" is the weather.
As soon as September started it changed almost overnight, and the nights are decidedly cooler.
Yesterday, we had to batten down the hatches so to speak, as it was so windy. Overnight it settled down and this morning all is quiet, cloudy and cool.
Wednesday, was the first meeting of the quilting guild I belong to. We don't meet during the months of July and August so we all had a lot of chatting to do to get caught up on what everyone had done over the summer. We must have been busy doing other things than sewing as there was not many projects for show and tell portion of the program.
Two of the members and myself go out every two or three weeks to find an interesting place to take a look at and finish off with a lunch. The last of our travels took us to an art gallery showing fabric paintings and then to an Art Guild in another city. This is where we saw a show the members had just finished.
This guild has members who sew, paint, work with clay etc. so it was interesting to see their latest show which included all of the mediums. We got our idea for our guilds next challenge.
With the help of the two friends, I took on the task of explaining the challenge to the members of our guild. To make it short, one picture was given to each member and they had to look at it and use what inspired them in this picture to make their project. All methods of sewing or even some other medium could be used. The challenge ends at our March meeting next year and then each piece will be put in a show in April. It will be interesting to see the finished projects.
The rest of the week was doing all things that normally need to be done, and then yesterday was happy hour upstairs, which is always includes a lot of chatter and laughs.
Have a great day.
Cheers
