A detail of my Recycled Circles meets Dia de los Muertos! (I'm getting in the mood for our San Miguel de Allende Mixed Media retreat in October 2012)

Just back from teaching at the Long Beach International Quilt Festival.

Long Beach, California had gorgeous weather and the part of town where the convention center is located is really nice.That's the Hyatt hotel on the right, it's next to the convention center.
I taught two workshops and here's some student work from my "Recycled Circles" class. All were done in fabric and machine stitched. (They'll hand embellish and finish later)

I love how each ends up differently.

I'm teaching this workshop at CREATE on August 27th in Chicago, using a combination of paper and cloth on a paper substrate. They had to add a second day, because my Wednesday workshop filled up. And I'm teaching it at Art & Soul in Portland, Oregon on September 29.
