Portland Pod Holiday Meeting November 16

Our next Portland Pod meeting will be on Wednesday, Nov 16, 11-2PM (note different time for just this meeting), at the Beaverton Community Center, 12350 SW 5th St., for our Holiday Potluck.  Please bring a food item suitable for brunch/lunch, though because the room does not have a kitchen, anything that needs to be warm can be in a crock pot or warming plate.  Plates, silverware, coffee and tea will be provided.  We will also do a fabric exchange, so if you’d like to participate, bring 1yd or 4 fat quarters of nice fabric, something you’d like to receive.  And in memory of Jan Duke, there will be a "question of the day".  There will not be a December meeting.

News from Central Oregon SAQA Pod

Eugene quilt artist Niraja Lorenz shared her award winning work with Central Oregon SAQA at our October meeting.  Niraja’s colorful and intricately pieced  quilts were inspiring and her power point presentation illustrated the processes used by this exuberant artist.

Japanese printmaking is the theme of the Thursday, November 17th meeting at A6 Gallery and Studio, 550 SW Industrial Way #180, Bend. (note..for this meeting we are NOT meeting in Sisters).

An origami book making class is scheduled for 2:30 pm.  Cost is $20 (all materials included) and space is limited.  If you want to participate and have not already signed up, please let me know ASAP.  At 4 pm our group will have a private tour of the gallery, cost $10.  Again, please let me know if you plan on attending.
