If you answered yes to any of
these questions and desire to get together with your like-minded buddies more often than once a
month at Guild meetings, or would like to meet with a smaller group in a different setting, then
maybe one of our "Bees" is right for you! There are several mini-groups, or Bees, that have
formed within the last year.
If you are interested in joining in the fun please contact
a Bee leader (there may be a group that suits your time schedule) they have a chair waiting for
you! If you are interested in forming your own Bee; or would like to find out more about the Bees
and how they work, please contact the BeeKeeper. We will see if we can get you buzzing along
within the hive.
The more Bees, the more fun, the more quilts ... what could be better?

Tuesday morning Bee --
This group is focused on non-traditional quilting and styles such
as art quilts, various types of fabric, digitized images and three-dimensional techniques. The group
meets on the 4th Tuesday of each month at 9:30am. Meeting location is the Little Creek Recreation Center,
610 Foxcroft Dr in W-S. The contact person is Gail McNeill, 721-9150, proust@triad.rr.com
The Beecassos have periodic group challenges, which are tons of fun and push our creativity to
new levels. These examples are the results from those challenges. In this challenge, each
participant was given an identical bag of "stuff" and was to incorporate at least 9 of the items.
It is inspiring to see other's creative side.
NOTE: Please see excerption Beecasso Article
as featured in the May'08 issue of
The Community Arts Café, an exceptional on-the-web e-magazine about
"Arts in the Triad." |
