From Michelle: Our July New Mexico SAQA meeting and dinner will be at 6 pm Friday night at the Adobe Springs Restaurant on Hwy. 180 in Silver City. Please let Michelle know if you will be attending so she can make reservations.
There will be no workshops in Silver City. Many were
concerned that they would miss the information because they
couldn't attend the workshops in Silver City. They may be held in conjunction with a future meeting.

EXHIBIT by DYE FUSION
FROM PRESS TO FABRIC
An exhibit by DyeFusion
DyeFusion is a group of seven women who enjoy playing with
dyes and paints and creating one of a kind altered fabrics. Their challenge for this display was to make
prints on fabric. Each of these quilts
began as a monoprint created using a large etching press. Since prints are usually created on paper,
they experimented to find techniques for printing on this new surface. They used oil printing inks with a large
sheet of plexiglass, to create the original plate from which they printed. They also created smaller companion prints on
paper.
The exhibit will hang at the Esther Bone Library during July
and August.
