Ithaca Parlor Meeting = Great Discussion

Judy Warner shares her work with 18 SAQA New York members in a parlor meeting hosted by Aafke Steenhuis in Ithaca, New York today. After a round of show and tell, and filling lunch and dessert (thanks, again, Aafke) we had a great discussion on topics from "What do you call yourself?" to "Name some events you would like SAQA NY to organize."

Organized by Jeanne Simpson and Pat Pauly, the meeting offered a chance to connect to other artists and garner how the medium of art quilts differs and compares to other fields of art. It was a great day. Above, Marcia DeCamp is hidden behind her "Icicles" work.
