These are the first art journal quilts made by the TQ Art Group for the month of October.
The rude lady you see in there is actually a brooch (pin) which our member, Kay, picked up at a craft stall in Gatton. (Top Right) This quilt is not completed and she is calling it "My Autumn Years".
The very beautiful one at the bottom is by Linda Wrench. She does fabulous felting work. Linda loves to fossick for gems and is writing a story about her fossicking adventures with each art quilt. This one is "Garnet"
Kathy Adams is doing her monthly journal quilts on songs she loves from the 70's. (Middle Left) This one is printed on silk and is called "3 Roses were Bought with You in Mind".
I don't know the names of all the other quilts, but mine is in the middle "Dream Weavers", Ann J "Boots 'n All" (Top Left)
Glenda T did the one on the bottom right and has used the 'confetti method'.
I think I was the only one to finish the November quilt and that was my "Viva Valentino" piece (here)
We only started with 7 members and now we have interest from about 12 people. I will post more about my art journal quilting in 2011 when I hope to try different techniques and experiment a little.
