Thank you to all who attended our opening fall meeting Saturday, September 20th at Hillside Church in Bloomington! We enjoyed perusing various members' work and projects, snapping up treasures at a “free” table, tasting delicious treats, and more!
This year we have been gifted with great lectures from Michael Sull, Della Hutchison and now Heather Held. We are a very fortunate guild to have time and attention from these great historians of our craft as well as gentle sharers of knowledge and wisdom.
Last April I was invited to teach a workshop on double stroke gothic majuscules. I spent 9 months of studying for the workshop - making notes of details to share with a wide variety of skill levels.
If you attended Maker U and would like to share any thoughts on your experience, summary of one of the presentations and/or photos, you can either email Sally with your contribution or add your thoughts in the comment section.
Cats and pretzels, beehives and butterflies, angels and demons, monkeys and gold – The Hours of Catherine of Cleves has it ALL, thanks to the level of mastery and imagination held by its creators.
