President's Message
|
I am writing this, my final President’s message, to let all of you know that I will be relocating to Santa Fe, New Mexico later this month. This move originally was to take place within the next two years. My husband’s health has continued to deteriorate, and we were given a wonderful opportunity to leave now, and move to a lovely place where a great apartment became available.

oops! My Edges are showing! Karen Eckmeier's presentation will definitely give you some ideas on where to find inspiration and how to deal with the scary edges encountered as you do straight stitch applique or raw-edge collage. No matter what you call it, the edges of the fabric are bound to fray. From early hand applique pieces, up to her current straight-edge stitch applique series, Karen has shown dealt with these and will share her methods. |
