News from Members



Judy Warner's piece show above "Overwhelm" will be shown in the North West Quilting Expo in Portland, Oregon this September 20-22.




Pat Pauly's work "Genesee" was on view during the Greentopia Festival in Rochester, New York September 11 - 16. Measuring 12' x 24', it mimics the Genesee Falls and is made of weather proof nylon and plastic that was recycled.




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.
