Most Phoebes had cut out and stuffed the body parts so Anne could start tutoring the methods of sewing, assembling, and decorating the tiny figures. Some were people, others were animals, and each one was unique and adorable. It was an intensive amount of work and a test of manual dexterity, as well as time consuming. Most people took theirs home to finish. We hope we can see them completed at the next meeting. Thank you, Anne, for all the time and effort spent to enrich all of us! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3036" data-original-width="2954" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj0Mj6oQJ8HcccTphyphenhyphen2DTKAZlmoqfooo2Go6rheVtqLYXeBnfIwsDxhVokIc2L0IEj1CcZh-fo3ZC4nTxHozW9aYj01Cn2F8HQCnplx-zXm0Nh-0W4ufZKGEvQo4g1IDbtOqnMXm8sG9R49E-Plg_qlk1iEpp2z8CIt5rNUwEvmcaRiT1aYZXBkFuNucY/w622-h640/image0%20(1).jpeg" width="622" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">Linda joined us on Zoom and sent a photo of the little darlings she had finished. </span><img border="0" data-original-height="599" data-original-width="454" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvuHoEc5x2dpVG5_KJP4cjFPREtRGYKV_QEyhtj0oRYg-FLkp3FksfXXqlLmma0QNCQ3RLSFvwjuJoGCIK3Qt3XBIDH1KhGZ99ju7qKD9VdLwsdF7CbRnJLv_wtXZCM76DPNxsdntO-iTL_2EeLslgOvbOA3BT0bFVGeOOCg5LjOPNAeAAdtIX83QMio8/w486-h640/IMG_2211.jpg" width="486" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">Donna brought other types of pins she has received from Phoebe members over the years. </span><img border="0" data-original-height="483" data-original-width="468" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkwQX43OxlFEmOGazOxjKlkk5ZAxCAU_-qsLqczCOuCSVlLsUp0X1ZkFdosjyUMQyWm27f6BO3OeQdBE33i_ToQHkyJhb5J7E1qS-NgmgtzkWT5Ab4GoLE35BiJZtIlKa-iu_CaIZavMir1LVYM0csROubTqLckAJFoaJKzIObp-MUH5L3Z5QUVqU5OSc/w620-h640/IMG_2212.jpg" width="620" /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">She also brought two pins and a nametag she had made in previous Phoebe challenges. </span></span><img border="0" data-original-height="537" data-original-width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC5VBfm0gUZT2ZNzZLFHIlYUh078SxL9JJUD8wF4-0i1PVJL8UfwxsEX3v3QCVUv_qapzaBpbJ6gtp0TgV1GY4Fm2XVIgyfSbGxEh8mn5yjChg1G8ckUOqtHHhYQnb2cMNK1H8fSnzUh55du9z8CgJbc9dS2OgZhudoB69ayWetsWWWkuNOEbkm3PuQ2s/w572-h640/IMG_2213.jpg" width="572" /><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">Marcella displayed her wonderful collection of assorted pins made by other artists.</span></div></span><p style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Show and Tell</span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLGQJcLVFrPNnpAwtWREcqUAyeBm99gnoRmYzh_smwf6fUP0Dg7Tj1ko17HrHLz4b0CfPHaVvZGMBeTurK6U3gUaS5-43L7KKdizxE7qab0BYT8bFa_IQBbJK2mGMst_NUBW_XEaAoAG6ydhBWbiIDim8j8lnVUW7j8Th3-M6DUSfVKj1zHuFtVCVq3UI/s548/IMG_2200.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="548" height="504" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLGQJcLVFrPNnpAwtWREcqUAyeBm99gnoRmYzh_smwf6fUP0Dg7Tj1ko17HrHLz4b0CfPHaVvZGMBeTurK6U3gUaS5-43L7KKdizxE7qab0BYT8bFa_IQBbJK2mGMst_NUBW_XEaAoAG6ydhBWbiIDim8j8lnVUW7j8Th3-M6DUSfVKj1zHuFtVCVq3UI/w640-h504/IMG_2200.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Colleen has been having a great deal of fun pouring various types of paint on ceramic tiles, which are then coated to permanently seal.

It was more like a play day or extended enrichment session focused on needle felting. Colleen, Geri, and other members experienced in needle felting brought a huge number of tools and materials—such as foam, fabric, needles, and many bins and bags of wool roving. We also had a potluck luncheon that was brimming with finger foods, savory entrees, sweets, and a special birthday cake baked by Anne for Marcella and Betts.

She brought paper, ink pens, photos to sketch, and her artistic knowledge to inspire us to learn to make sketches by observing our subject matter while not watching our drawing take form. Above she is seen displaying a very successful finished sketch created by Colleen, followed by two more examples completed by Phoebes, shown below.</span></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: large; text-align: center;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV5XhLt-EcorIT_GDX-Ijo9emanya-KYUcWE4n18JWrmq8dC-cLECNeG1GTeHNhZGzHvWAQHtNbsLA4bl_wY3Nos2Oso-eWxYEZEdjSptLRJ48MED8s8NkEz_3-DdbarwtCNnf5rQOvm9Xuqm7DKle_nHK0rlQy9zuNLMCWrxAPql60_7gSyI-W60wFPY/s513/IMG_1990.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="513" data-original-width="426" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV5XhLt-EcorIT_GDX-Ijo9emanya-KYUcWE4n18JWrmq8dC-cLECNeG1GTeHNhZGzHvWAQHtNbsLA4bl_wY3Nos2Oso-eWxYEZEdjSptLRJ48MED8s8NkEz_3-DdbarwtCNnf5rQOvm9Xuqm7DKle_nHK0rlQy9zuNLMCWrxAPql60_7gSyI-W60wFPY/w532-h640/IMG_1990.jpg" width="532" /></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6r3wABZwA6tqtEu_Fv85wyasDEC40Muf_fJKJ6BAKE0asaated6KeJWThFA3P0PV2Pn4Zw5fyCLw2L5jY-ZW56Dt0KWt8s4LlgtlyB6HfkmJS2VZu5VMRZPNEcdXLv9twbsuyc_QW3ko4BI5IaE0ZxWFwJxEd2Zq3plcDMkS69iBEQ9OCjVBpqf4ywMM/s553/IMG_1991.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="553" data-original-width="381" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6r3wABZwA6tqtEu_Fv85wyasDEC40Muf_fJKJ6BAKE0asaated6KeJWThFA3P0PV2Pn4Zw5fyCLw2L5jY-ZW56Dt0KWt8s4LlgtlyB6HfkmJS2VZu5VMRZPNEcdXLv9twbsuyc_QW3ko4BI5IaE0ZxWFwJxEd2Zq3plcDMkS69iBEQ9OCjVBpqf4ywMM/w440-h640/IMG_1991.jpg" width="440" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51jHr9_GJjBX9Ega6hkjO9gFF8OD-wm_YvHIIA2jmx2oLvCkMCLJHp2qJt-zque5BeanvFHtp7m7y41SMoRYl6pgG4RikMx7ekASSo_I2geIC7QBhqsTZcIBEIlLXe5YV4bh41ILUGQHoI3zywlZLHU-SezOO_iTAF9MIDZsTJ5rat7cXOZR3QHfbeGw/s597/IMG_1993.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="597" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51jHr9_GJjBX9Ega6hkjO9gFF8OD-wm_YvHIIA2jmx2oLvCkMCLJHp2qJt-zque5BeanvFHtp7m7y41SMoRYl6pgG4RikMx7ekASSo_I2geIC7QBhqsTZcIBEIlLXe5YV4bh41ILUGQHoI3zywlZLHU-SezOO_iTAF9MIDZsTJ5rat7cXOZR3QHfbeGw/w640-h500/IMG_1993.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="color: #cc0000;">Deb also brought to the meeting some samples of the tiny cloth-sculptured pins that have brought her much admiration and commercial success over the years.

She brought SO MANY wonderful stamps and materials to share with all and we really appreciate her effort and generosity. She taught us how to carefully apply the Jacquard inks onto the stamp pads and to use double sided tape to adhere stamps to the acrylic bases, plus more! The techniques require a little practice and patience, which we will continue to work on. But it is honestly well worth the effort. Please bring your finished projects to the next meeting so we can admire them! </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;"><b style="color: #cc0000;"><span><b>Calendar</b></span></b><b style="color: #cc0000;"><span><b><span> </span></b></span></b></span></div><div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #cc0000;">September 9 Meeting, (Saturday), </b><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>11:30 A.M. </b></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;"><span><b>at Marcella's.</b><span><b> </b></span></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">D</span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">rop-in Social Get-together will start at 11:30 A.M. to 1:30 P.M.

Harlene's enrichment session showed us exactly how to solve that problem. She demonstrated how easy it is to make a ruffled accessory by gathering a bit of beautiful fabric and ribbon and quickly turning them into a chic accessory. She has made many of them and has successfully sold them at various art and crafts shows. Now we know the secret! Thank you, Harlene, for a great idea.</span></div><p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b style="font-family: verdana;">Calendar</b><b><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></b></span></b></div><div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #cc0000;">July 8 and August 12 Meetings, (Saturday), </b><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>11:30 A.M. </b></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;"><span><b>at Marcella's.</b><span><b> </b></span></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">D</span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial;">rop-in Social Get-together will start at 11:30 A.M. to 1:30 P.M.

It is based on an ancient Japanese process of weaving called Kumihimo. In preparation for the presentation, Jennifer gathered a large assortment of colorful fibers and assembled a kit for each person participating. Above are samples of finished cords, which have the potential to be used in a variety of ways. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVJfuRaWsvXY0H90mbMa2D2flZrV8mDsfuvD6rZ2OJb1yjTz4sduWdbc86_HsyTNC_Cam5GiOxmF6z5gMh5vbUi9hiBpCvYJ2AQ0f6XNIPGrYwVxvYpzNlHerBvXeu1DUXctytx15Nt6CjC3NytUOjGRNx-axFKupWzN8_IMMLaAzumbYwdhoMDdFt/s611/IMG_1516.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="395" data-original-width="611" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVJfuRaWsvXY0H90mbMa2D2flZrV8mDsfuvD6rZ2OJb1yjTz4sduWdbc86_HsyTNC_Cam5GiOxmF6z5gMh5vbUi9hiBpCvYJ2AQ0f6XNIPGrYwVxvYpzNlHerBvXeu1DUXctytx15Nt6CjC3NytUOjGRNx-axFKupWzN8_IMMLaAzumbYwdhoMDdFt/w640-h414/IMG_1516.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large; font-weight: 400;">Jennifer, second from the left, leads Anne, Harlene and Bonnie in the weaving process.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="479" data-original-width="489" height="626" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjusohHiq7Dwt92uK6EJhj2wt3ZAJs2m_0IvRHvqvDFeCopDhKwUuq00Cu97KM7x-SEPntkmHsolYQsnGkInJpLWU7fw1qj4BJ4_K6Nr0eQcDw_OgxTFkslHkTIjWaXRoYZqUNBwRXsBEBgIH2o_X2AgtEHbvUSCZl58qP8osZB2oBuMCK1rFyAngFV/w640-h626/IMG_1517.jpg" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: large;">Marcella and Geri are seriously concentrating on their weaving. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHoJnOM8s5YMQNwsJjxx96lKPslftCZDt4KKTO74VQ7Sar0AHHoars8hjKQJ_MzuX2snPpb31Bujn0UPO_G-JLBkPdcd69c3RVU7ehaKfQQZswCICskmH6kUuE3efRo5mtjZ-iRctp2C8i82kcqCmwf0vqDhZAgmfuqK-SV8DuDIKyy8he4SoJB0y1/s585/IMG_1518.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="338" data-original-width="585" height="370" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHoJnOM8s5YMQNwsJjxx96lKPslftCZDt4KKTO74VQ7Sar0AHHoars8hjKQJ_MzuX2snPpb31Bujn0UPO_G-JLBkPdcd69c3RVU7ehaKfQQZswCICskmH6kUuE3efRo5mtjZ-iRctp2C8i82kcqCmwf0vqDhZAgmfuqK-SV8DuDIKyy8he4SoJB0y1/w640-h370/IMG_1518.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large; font-weight: 400;">The careful concentration paid off when the participants admired the beautiful cords they had created.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #cc0000; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="559" data-original-width="362" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXvQRaG0jfMk-Pig-36d79W-vXUjS7ha2goro4BHahoH_xbBiGFbG9Qt5PZwml8TuxTHgsZ05vqBHEwlo_bbrgUXWarbCSJsbdwDzHobzaSv6Rv3NTD1q9PdYBjzTM75Qta_NtC_CjITBf6Dx3FmyYIniH-ypO7AfBC338p_rG0fbF2yBRtYuIQ70K/w414-h640/IMG_1519.jpg" width="414" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Harlene displays a close-up which shows the completed cord in the center, and the spindles of fibers hanging around the outside edge of the cardboard "loom."

She has challenged herself to create every day and at last count had been working more than 60 consecutive days. She has experimented with new techniques using Photoshop, painting backgrounds with watercolors, printing on fabric as seen above, and using embroidery to define, outline, or fill in areas. The results are amazing and can be viewed on her Facebook and Instagram sites. </span></div></span></div></span></span></div><p></p></div>Flying Phoebe Cloth Doll Clubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08217531823947547076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446469776319555181.post-49760756905497509952023-03-12T17:12:00.005-07:002023-04-04T11:44:18.993-07:00The Beading Queen Shares Her Knowledge!<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP9nA963k_3fmo8okstNsBic3YUwSMQX4h99WOZ7JFpEkb4_c2lgkc1STYrrLmfrU0-oj3uvboXC39Xk4QZN3ZjdrWWuvBNFeWzIaPYoxRCyMPf8TqvMHIB1Hu6XlTFZ7lRarOPX7U1YeIxTI1Tx9BRbljhLcvGv1fWeAAsEOWKxsVK7p-wdczHNmF/s290/IMG_1442.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="290" data-original-width="161" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP9nA963k_3fmo8okstNsBic3YUwSMQX4h99WOZ7JFpEkb4_c2lgkc1STYrrLmfrU0-oj3uvboXC39Xk4QZN3ZjdrWWuvBNFeWzIaPYoxRCyMPf8TqvMHIB1Hu6XlTFZ7lRarOPX7U1YeIxTI1Tx9BRbljhLcvGv1fWeAAsEOWKxsVK7p-wdczHNmF/w222-h400/IMG_1442.jpg" width="222" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large; text-align: center;">Our dear longtime Phoebe member, Rosie, was able to travel to the Bay Area and join us at the March meeting. She presented the highlight of the day, which was the enrichment session demonstrating how to bead the edges of the little purse necklaces which were shown in last month's blog post. Donna was planning to demonstrate how to make the bead and charm findings to further embellish the purses, but it was decided that perhaps adding how to bend wire, make loops and connections, etc, was too much information for one session.</span></p><p><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large; text-align: center;">Those participating in the purse project are advised to watch some YouTube videos to learn the basic techniques and practice a bit first.

It was our goal to show them at the February meeting. We had such a good turnout this month, and soon the examples of all the Show and Tell items were being circulated around the room in both directions. It got to the point where it was difficult to record the maker of individual items as they passed by. So, please forgive the fact the items shown in the rest of this blog are not identified by the maker. However, you will be amazed by all the truly original and beautiful creations in all categories that were presented. </span></div><p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It has been several years since we have been able to have a Christmas party, due to bad weather and to Covid restrictions and concerns. And even though a wild rainstorm was predicted, the Rain Gods mercifully held back the deluge until after we had safely arrived inside and lifted the heavy rain and wind when it was time to leave. </span></span></p><p><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Barbara was most generous in supplying the major portion of the meal by serving a delicious Chicken Pot Pie, other accompaniments and treats, and a fabulous Cheesecake, plus individual favors in tiny tabletop sleighs. Some members also contributed some savory and sweet items that created an amazing feast.</span></span></p><p><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large;">And then, Barbara went above and beyond by leading us in a tutorial for making very beautiful tiny and delicate paper shoes and supplying the materials to make them. </span></span></p><p><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: large;">THANK YOU SO MUCH, Barbara, for making all this possible and for bringing so much joy to everyone.</span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"> </span></p><p></p><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000;"><b style="font-family: verdana; font-size: xx-large;">Calendar</b><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b></b></div><div><p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;"> </span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;"><b style="color: #cc0000;">January 8, (Saturday), </b><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>11 A.M. </b></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;"><span><b>at Marcella's.</b><span><b> </b></span></span></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;">D</span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: arial; font-size: x-large;">rop-in Social Get-together will be from 11:00 A.M. to 1:30 P.M.

The highlight was learning from Christine how to make the felt flowers that adorn their hair. The center doll is a design Donna created to honor the Japanese Harajuku girls, who dress up as little "Lolita's" and capture attention on Tokyo streets by wearing lots of lace, ruffles, bows and pastels. </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: verdana; font-size: xx-large; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXuoX5QXLK1OknZ46EK8bMflsgDxgutrlZWsUhKNB-MVr35Z904Is6ephgHtTcI7POnQYS8vhWNM-5bUbyZOvfHIgS1wHrIjiArAAx9Egu4tlKEPu9VY7WzOnoQ89qKW-VRjXdD28JZMbXCwR_PrRATYjkfMOgYgO1_OQ4jxpGRPTK6ZOegpzYmXQL/s640/FullSizeRender.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="546" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXuoX5QXLK1OknZ46EK8bMflsgDxgutrlZWsUhKNB-MVr35Z904Is6ephgHtTcI7POnQYS8vhWNM-5bUbyZOvfHIgS1wHrIjiArAAx9Egu4tlKEPu9VY7WzOnoQ89qKW-VRjXdD28JZMbXCwR_PrRATYjkfMOgYgO1_OQ4jxpGRPTK6ZOegpzYmXQL/w546-h640/FullSizeRender.jpeg" width="546" /></a></div><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-large; font-weight: 400;"></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">We all miss you, Rosie, but we are glad you can join us on Zoom and also share some of the creative projects you have been working on.

She generously supplied all the materials (beautiful fabrics including silks, as well as laces, trims, buttons, and glue) needed to create a one-of-a-kind fabric page. The challenge was to create a fabric collage and add one special personal embellishment we each brought from home. The results were beautiful. Some were finished (see photos below) and the others we hope to see and photograph at our next gathering in October. Thank you, Sharon, for a truly wonderful experience which everyone thoroughly enjoyed! </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana; font-size: x-large;"><b style="font-size: xx-large;">Calendar </b></b></p><p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">October 8, (Saturday), </b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;"><b>1 to 5 P.M,</b> </span><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">Phoebe's Annual Anniversary Potluck Celebration </b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">at Christ Episcopal Church, 1700 Santa Clara, Alameda, (parking entrance on Grand). <i>Please bring a sweet or </i></span><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;"><i>savory dish to share</i>.<b> </b>Daisy will lead an enrichment session.

color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana; font-size: x-large; text-align: center;">shows, and often sold. As time progressed, many members expanded their interests and created amazing art using various types of media. However, the love of dolls remains in our hearts and souls. The outstanding feature of the May meeting was the "Dolls in Literature" presentation by Geri. She brought many books that all related to dolls, the history of dolls, information about using dolls in stories and doll characters that are famous. Her presentation was so informative and interesting, and it reminded us why people cherish and collect dolls. Thank you, Geri!</span></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana; font-size: x-large;"><b style="font-size: xx-large;">Calendar </b></b></div><p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">June 11 (Saturday) at Marcella's.<span> </span></b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">Drop-in Social Get-together 11:00 to 1:30, Business Meeting at 1:30 P.M.

The highlight of the meeting was Sally's enrichment session—an introduction to watercolor painting. She generously supplied all of us with a miniature paint set and brush, and samples of various watercolor papers. We learned the basics of mixing colors and various painting techniques. Members, many who had not painted before, were excited and inspired by her non-intimidating presentation and looked forward to further experimentation on their own. Thank you, Sally, for your inspiration and exceptional demonstration.</span></span></div><p></p><p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana; font-size: x-large;"><b style="font-size: xx-large;">Calendar </b></b></div><p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">May 14 (Saturday) at Marcella's.<span> </span></b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: verdana;">Drop-in Social Get-together 11:00 to 1:30, Business Meeting at 1:30 P.M.
