September Photos

Mary Jo provided pre-stitched doll pieces and a variety of stuffing, trims, fabrics, and ideas for a day of doll making.

Mary Jo and Susan getting ready to craft.

Linda, Mary Jo, and Betty talking – something interesting I’m sure!

Of course, we had plenty to eat!  Susan and Valerie are getting the food and utensils ready.

Works in Progress!  Everyone has their own style, even though we started from the same pattern pieces.

President Betty is presented with the tools of office.  You need to make lots of noise to get our attention!

Show & Tell:

Linda brought the Santa she has been making for her brother.

Here, Susan and Mary Jo give Linda some pointers on drawing face features for Santa.

Betty’s sweet little witch from the class Christine taught us last year.

August Pictures

A work day for the 2014 Doll.  These are the dolls at the beginning of the day – (L to R) Betty, Liz, Lillian, Linda, Valerie

Same dolls at the end of the day (although I did not get Betty’s or Val’s, they showed progress, too).  L to R – Liz, Lillian, Linda

Show & Tell:

Doll by Deanna Hogan that Lillian got at UFDC in San Antonio

Display box by Liz from Christine’s class.  Pin doll is from our beaded doll session a couple of years ago.

Guardian Grannies by Cindy Roupe.  Cindy wasn’t at the meeting, but she provided these dolls for our doll shows in Holton, so I included them as Show & Tell here.

Holton Art Walk

After our display at the Quilt Show in June, PinEllaPs were invited to take part in the Last Friday Art Walk in August.  Here are photos of our setup.

Thank you to Betty, Linda, Cindy, and Carol for loaning me your dolls for this showing.

From the July meeting

Apologies for the blurriness of these photos.  I tried something different with the camera and – along with still adjusting to lens implants – I could not see how bad some of these are!  Next month, it’s back to the old camera settings!
