Textile Mixed Media Artists
In June 2011, I started a group for textile artists who would like to expand their art and themselves.
The idea was to meet every now and then, learn a new technique and set a challenge, so that as a group we would have a body of work ready for exhibiting in Waikato Patchwork and quilters exhibition "Calling all quilts".
The group grew quickly over 2 months, to 20 inspired members, who wanted to meet regular and share heaps!
If you are local to Waikato, NZ and would like to join us, please contact me at -- jmrallan@xtra.co.nz.
