More Pictures from April's Doll Club Meeting




April 14th Doll Club Meeting


Wow, this month's meeting was a blast! Our workshop this month was marbeling with Mary! Mary taught a great workshop on how to dye fabric using shaving cream and dye. I think eveyone had a blast!
Our challenge for this month was to make name tag that reflected who we are; I think Ms. Deloris get's the prize for making one that really looked herself. Everyone did an amazing job.
Next month's challenge is to decorate the hats and alter the treasure chest tins, compliments of Rose, and bring them next month. Our May workshop will be conducted by Cindi a.k.a Moon Goddess on how to make doll hair with the hair pin tool. More information to follow on what supplies to bring with you next mont.
Some sad news; Kathi will no longer be joining us as she got a teaching gig on Wednesdays, and our dear friend Susan fell and broke her sholder and will be out of commission for awhile. We miss you sweet friend!
As usual the meeting went by way too fast, but it was a great time for everyone!
More later!
Cynthia!

Flower face pin

I enjoyed teaching a bunch of our group how to bead around a polymer face.  Everyone wanted to know what to do with them after they finished.  Here is one of the ideas I came up with.

Hope everyone had a nice Passover & Easter this year.

Recap of March 10 Doll Club Meeting

What a great meeting we had this month! Yvonne led a "hands-on" demonstration; generously allowing us to use her molds and Ultra Light Sculpey - White. Mary also brought some great molds and everyone walked away with at least one sample to take home.

The Show & Tell table was a great hit and the dollar challenge dolls were all so unique and creative! What a talented bunch of women we have in this club.

We welcomed a new member, Kathi (with an i) :) and we had a lady from the YMCA, Deloris, sit in to see if this was something that she would like to attend regulary. We hope she comes back!

The challenge for April's meeting is "Name Tags!" Everyone should make a name tag to wear to each meeting - bonus points if it looks like you!

Also for April's meeting - we will be doing "Marbeling with Mary," as she leads us through a workshop on dying fabric using inks and shaving cream! An email and later post will outline the supplies you need to bring to the meeting.

I posted a couple of pictures below from our March class.

February 10th meeting

I had such a nice time on Wednesday, hopefully we can stay in the new location. I'm looking forward to teaching the bracelett at Anthem in Florence the end of this month. Teaching others my love of beads always gives me so much. Sharing stories, ideas and thoughts fills my artist soul.

The cernit demonstration was very nice and I hope we can have other demonstrations throughout this year.

Here's to a wonderful group of talented artists, you all have touched me with your kindness & art.

Beadily yours
Susan E Feldkamp

bracelet class

Susan is teaching her wonderful bracelet here at Anthem at Merrill Ranch on February 26th. Some of you from the doll club are taking the class, too. My address, for those of you coming, is 6601 W Sandpiper Ct., Florence, AZ 85132. You will stop at the clubhouse on Sun City Blvd. where the class will be held. Susan is generously teaching the class for $35.00 person if anyone else is interested. This is an all day class.

Some of us are also interested in having her teach her cabochon class. Perhaps there is a more central location for that? Or we can do it here, also. Who else is interested?
