Show and Tell

Elizabeth took a sculpting class in Grass Valley offered by Deborah Bridges. She has put long hours into this amazing sculpture entitled "Paul," which was modeled from a photograph. What a gifted sculptress!



Jo shared another of her "Nasty Woman" quilted squares. So clever and colorful!

Jo also brought this small stump cloth doll she recently created. Wonderful!

Marcella bought this doll she purchased from Kathleen Walmsby at the Doll and Bear Show in Pleasanton. It is made from polymer clay. So cute!

Here is another example of Mary's beautiful knitted garments. The lovely colors and the soft yarn make it a delight to wear.


This adorable doll was made by Suzanne. The combination of whimsical prints are perfect! Great job!
