How exciting! Some of the now defunct QuiltUniversity.com classes have been taken over by www.AcademyOfQuilting.com, so my classes are going to appear there, starting January 1. I have been fairly busy editing the classes, and learning how to take a video on my movie camera, get it off the movie camera into my computer, then load it onto UTube (for some reason, my Mac won't accept the video off my video camera, even though it CLEARLY states on the camera box that it will), then opening it in MacTube on my Mac, converting the files to MP4, then e-mailing them to myself so I can drop them in the AcademyofQuilting.com dropbox, because no sane e-mail program will put up with the size of the files. My head hurts.
The photo at the left is a project included in one of the classes. It's also the sample for my Creating With Cool Stuff class that is a very exciting way to get started with Art Quilts because it is actually an art quilt sampler. In making it, you get familiar with using MistyFuse, metallic paint powders, Lutradur, fabric paints, Puff Paint, Tyvek, melted painted cellophane and distorted sheer fabrics to create the chaos that is rushing water. Oh, I forgot Glitter Glue and sheer ribbon borders and iridescent cracked ice. All in one day, and everybody goes home with the project all pinned (or fused) down, and you don't even have to bring a machine to class!
