Last year I joined SAQA<\/a> – Studio Art Quilt Associates.\u00a0 SAQA’s\u00a0 mission is to promote the art quilt through education, exhibitions, professional development, documentation, and publications.\u00a0 I’m working on my first entry to a juried SAQA exhibit – Text Messages<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 The unifying theme will be text on quilts.<\/p>\n

I have a lot of ideas for quilts relating to text, but due to time constraints – the entry deadline is February 28th – I settled on just one idea.\u00a0 I decided to focus on the most colorful, creative kind of text I could think of – graffiti.\u00a0 I’ve had great fun with this one!\u00a0 Here’s a sneak peak, before fusing.<\/p>\n

\"DSCN0495\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My other text-related ideas won’t go to waste though, because Quilting Arts magazine has a reader challenge titled Text Me!<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 The deadline is not until March 29th, and the size is 8 x 8 inches, so I won’t have a problem getting one or more done.<\/p>\n

Scrap Management<\/strong> – I have a huge collection of scraps, and I like to sort them by color in clear plastic freezer bags, preferably with the slide closer – so they stay closed and don’t spill everywhere when I pick them up!\u00a0 The problem has been that my scrap collection keeps growing until the bags overflow.\u00a0 I was thrilled to find some Jumbo freezer bags recently – 14 x 16 inches – with sliders.\u00a0 Last night I grabbed the 25-30 bags of various sizes that have been housing my scraps, and sorted them all into the jumbo bags (except the yellow scraps, which had to go in a smaller bag, because I only have 10 jumbo bags).\u00a0 I sorted them as follows: yellow, orange\/rust, red\/pink, purple\/burgundy, blue, green, beige\/brown, black\/white\/gray, solids, fused scraps.\u00a0 How do you sort your scraps?<\/p>\n
