Our next meeting will be a field trip to the Textile Hive, on Wednesday, May 15, at 10 AM. The Textile Hive is located at 133 SW 2Nd Ave, Suite 430, Portland, 97204. There is no sign, just the address over a glass door with a brick arch. It’s on the west side of 2nd, their maybe street parking, but there are a couple of pay lots nearby. The tour should last approximately 1 1/2 hours and a $5.00 fee will be collected from each member. We encourage you to carpool and allow plenty of time to get there; MAX tracks are nearby. The Hive is a collection of over 40,000 textiles, spanning 50 countries. Many designers use the collection for inspiration for apparel, footwear, wallpaper and upholstery. The creator, Andrea Aranow stated, “ I’ve always enjoyed textiles. I am entranced by their colors and patterns, love their touch and plasticity. The stories of these fabrics make them even richer.”</div>

Yummy yum yum!<br />
Come to our holiday pot luck to fill your tum!<br />
It might be rainy, it might be cold,<br />
can I entice you with my famous marshmallow Jello mold?<br />
Never fear, just my little joke.<br />
Ha ha, just wanted to give you a little poke. <br />
Of course you will want to bring something to share.<br />
Make it or buy it, we don’t care.<br />
Oh, before I forget, if a few deviled eggs should appear,<br />
you will hear a very loud cheer!<br />
Being your leader has been fun,<br />
but come January I will be done.<br />
Alas my friends what will we do<br />
after I say a fond adieu!</div>

Two members for each 2 hour shift, and it may involve some white glove duty. On Thursday and Friday, Sept 27 and 28, the hours are 9AM-5:30PM, and the shifts will start at 9AM, 11AM, 1PM, and 3PM (2.5 hours). Saturday, Sept 29, the hours are 9-5PM, shifts at 9AM, 11AM, 1PM, and 3PM ( and will include take down, about another 30 minutes). We also may need 3 people to hang the show on the Wednesday, Sept 26, but I haven’t been able to confirm that yet. Please contact me to reserve your volunteer space. I’m looking for about 16 lovely ladies to help spread the word about SAQA and show off our beautiful “Bridge” exhibit.</span><br style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 13.33px; font-stretch: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 19.99px; orphans: 2; overflow: visible; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;" /><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; color: #222222; display: inline !important; float: none; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 13.33px; font-stretch: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 19.99px; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Please come to our meeting Wed. Sept. 19 at the Beaverton Community Center-10:00-12:00. We have a room change: the Vose room is street side through the main door. I’m extending an invitation to all our Oregon SAQA groups as well and hope to see you there!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our subject matter has been quite a learning experience for your fearless leader, and I hope it will be for you all as well. I will be leading a discussion on derivative art, what it is, questions to ask the instructor of any class we take, what exactly is copyright and how does it apply to us, use of public domain photos in our work etc. Also how to protect our own art. (Yes it happens)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">And for fun, bring your work that you realize is clearly the result of a class you took. I have one! If you are like me when you first ventured into Art Quilting you didn’t have a clue!</span></div>

OREGON REGIONAL CONFERENCE in Eugene, Oregon. During the afternoon of the
conference, you’ll be able to participate in two of three AFTERNOON
CONVERSATIONS:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">WHAT IS
A JAM? DO I WANT TO BE ONE? </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">“JAM?” seems to be a frequent
question among SAQA members. The term appears frequently on the web site and in
the SAQA Journal but many are not sure what it means. Join the conversation and
learn what a Juried Artist Member (JAM) is, how you become one and the benefits
enjoyed by its members. </span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">MENTORSHIP
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">Imagine having a one-to-one conversation each month with an
established art quilter……and discussing only your own artwork and journey. This
is a SAQA Mentorship!<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>The Mentorship
Program is one of the best values of a SAQA membership and it is FREE! Join the
conversation and learn all about how this incredible program can benefit your
artistic journey.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">GETTING
YOUR ART INTO SHOWS</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">After you have spent years
honing your skills and working in your studio, now it’s time to get your art
into shows!<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Is fear of rejection keeping
you from entering juried shows? Ask artists who are showing in major shows and
every one of them will share tales of rejection. Learning from rejection is how
they became successful. This conversation will discuss the ins and outs of
entering shows. What shows to enter. What pieces to enter. Getting all the
entry details right.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Reading and following
a prospectus. Preparing work for shipping. What things can you control and what
things do you have to leave to chance? </span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">Please join the conversation
and get started collecting “no's” on your path to “YES -Congratulations!”</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">Oregon
SAQA members Laura Jaszkowski, Judith Quinn Garnet, Sherri Culver and Carolyn
Walwyn will be your hosts for these conversations. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; margin: 0px;">Interested?
There’s still time to register for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Unpredictable

Has the hot weather or the smoky skies kept you indoors this summer? This is a good time to turn your creative mind to ideas for the art quilt show entitled FISSURES. I have shared this theme with many people and at times I see them pondering the word. So here is the description of the FISSURES (not fishers!) theme: </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; color: #1d2129; display: block; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 6px; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">
A fissure is simply a crack, an opening, a separation, a split. Other interpretations include vent, opening, breach, or cleft: A breach in the space/time co<span class="m_-5363162678547793186gmail-text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">ntinuum, or a black hole. A long narrow opening in rock. A volcanic fissure might spew lava, steam or smoke.<br style="display: inline; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" /> A biological fissure may be a split or break in tissue. Our relationships with others may develop fissures, miscommunications, a lack of togetherness.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">My professional name is Christina, thanks to one of my art professors at the U of O who refused to call me anything except Christina. When I later learned why, I actually felt honored! I was working on my MFA in sculpture, carving soapstone and wood, casting in bronze. Then, I spent the next twenty years working to conquer the use of color on clay pieces. It was not until I moved to Portland in 1999, that I returned to a first love - textiles.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">My deep interest in textiles I attribute to a trip my father took us on in 1962 to a high plateau in Northern Nigeria, to the city of Jos. Near that city was an indigo dye cottage industry. There the dye pits were dug into the ground and the batik and Adire cloth were hanging on the lines to dry in the high dessert sun. The blue, the tribal designs the contrast to the heat of the day some to me, I was hooked.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">The work I am currently making is in transition. Since I retired I have been exploring quiltmaking as a craft and as an art form. There is nothing like having three grandsons with various specific opinions to spur on and alter the creative thinking. I began my quilting seriously journey in 2004 with a quasi art quilt/improve quilt for the now 10 year old who wanted rainbow colors and cats on his twin size quilt.... I fell for the design side of quilting hard. So the experimentation began. I have made traditional quilt patterns and my own improve quilts. But, a</span><span style="font-size: 17.33px;">s a ceramic artist and a graphic artist, I felt it was time to put my energy into the art side of quilting. </span><span style="font-size: 17.33px;">I think my first art quilt may have stemmed from a shibori piece that I did as a whole cloth quilt, because I could not bring myself to cut up this piece of fabric.</span><span style="font-size: 17.33px;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">I think my first real art quilt is “Gaggle of Geese”, not a great sewing job, but a combination of traditional quilt patterns and appliqué of the image. This imagery came from a photograph I took many years ago when we lived on a sheep ranch. This gaggle of geese always protected the bridge over the creek. They could be nasty creatures, but this day they were more curious, enjoying the water, looking this way and that. That photo hung in my studio for a long time.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">When I begin a quilt I generally visualize the finished quilt first. I start with a rough drawing that emerges into a more refined idea. Then comes the auditioning of fabric and the embellishments. I work pretty loosely, often without the design wall (nor easy space for it). Lately, I have added the step of actually making a large paper pattern to define the image.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">I find my inspiration from a variety of places, frequently jogged by a quote or a line from a poem that speaks to me. Sometimes imagery is prompted by what is happening in my life as with the newest series, called ‘False Lumen’s. I intend to enter these into a show in December. In the past I have had several ceramics shows in the state of Oregon, but this will be my first quilt show entry. Sometimes imagery comes out of something I might be drawing which is usually inspired by words. Generally, as with “False Lumens’ there is a bit of research to get the correct image or to develope the idea further.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 17.33px;">I carefully divide my dyeing studio and sewing studio in the same room, a 10 x 25 foot, south facing room in the daylight basement. Sometimes when doing surface design work with discharge paste or block prints or stencils, I spill out into the rest of the basement or take the operation outdoors to enjoy the day. I am down here almost everyday unless I am in the garden or with the grandsons. The balance is skewed towards family at the moment, but the five year old goes into all day kindergarten in the fall and the four year old is almost there. (These are precious moments and besides I can get the boys to do art in the studio and that is golden!) So grandma duty will start to dwindle. My friends circle is a tight group of neighbors and a husband that does most of the cooking in exchange for cleaning the kitchen. My outside friends are mostly my small quilting group. We meet once a month and go on retreat once a year - very important group. I would love some more concentrated studio time, but for now am content to focus on the young minds - they will be occupied with their own creativity soon.</span></div>

What does "the edge" bring to mind for you? Is it the physical edges of nature (such as gorges, mountain peaks or shorelines), societal edges formed between different groups or philosophies or a certain personal "edginess" in style or attitude? Oregon Region artists are invited to submit work that reflects thoughts on "the edge" as related to their Oregon experience in a representational or abstract way.</div>

The Edge at the Oregon Historical Society (OHS) is an exciting opportunity for SAQA Oregon artists to display their work in a museum setting that is in the heart of Portland's cultural district. OHS is a major tourist draw, particularly during the summer months, and is expected to bring in at least 25,000 visitors during the run of the show. Between the North Wing and the Hayes Gallery, there are a wealth of strong 2D and 3D artwork display locations. These include a high ceilinged atrium-like space that leads to a display window portal into a large, yet intimate gallery.</div>
