A show of hands

by the participants of Sound and Sewing = a Makers Night Adult Workshop at the Aldrich Museum.  What an amazing group of brave and talented.

We explored the Chelpa Ferro exhibits to stir ideas for our hand-stitched pieces.  Thanks Suzanne for the wine and cheese.

Listening and reacting in words to the sounds
 
Gathering materials
decisions, decisions
designing
ideas in bloom
binding her "book"
intuitive reverse applique

running stitches
inspired by real life
flowing

and what a space to make art.  Thank you Aldrich!  Thank you artists for giving yourself the time to explore.
