I was able to take Pokey Bolton's class "Printapalooza" and what a lovely surprise to have Kelli Nina Perkins as a fellow student. I adore Kelli, and it was great to spend a day with her. The photo below was taken outside the hotel during Pokey's class~ we were sun printing.

  2. Everything looks so beautiful! Was that paint in the cups at the top? I'm saving my pennies to come next time - or maybe the time after that. Pennies don't add up very quickly. ;)

  3. It looks like it was so much fun. It's on my wish list for retreats to attend. Maybe sometime soon. xx

  4. Beautiful work from everyone! I hope I can take one of your classes somewhere someday! Do you always use Golden acrylic paint for the quiltlets?

  5. Becca, that was a students work. And for the quiltlets, you can use nearly anything! water soluble crayons, fabric paint, cheap acrylics......

  6. Hi Jane - took your Quiltlet class in Chicago - had a great time. I had the pink flower next to the owl. I started with black thread to outline, but on the plane ride home, I switched to a varigated indigo blue - can't decide which I like better. You use your thread so effectively - esp. the color. Maybe I should take everything out and use a pink varigated thread. What do you think? Thanks!
