Program: "Choosing Threads
for a Painted Canvas" -- Judie Solomon
Because this is our Annual Meeting, we have planned a special day.
Judie will introduce us to new fibers, explain color choices, and have advice
on suggested stitches and patterns. Even if you do not stitch painted
canvases, you can apply what you will learn from this exercise to other types
of embroidery.
Judie and her staff will select threads that they think will enhance each
of several canvases, choosing from a wide variety of threads and colors,
solids and over-dyed or hand-dyed threads, always including lots of
textures. We will review what was chosen and discuss the pros and cons
of each choice. We will also talk about suggested stitches and finishing
ideas for each canvas.
When our discussion is over, we will share items brought for show and tell,
and hold a very short meeting to elect officers for the 2006-2008 term.
Remember to bring your challenge piece, using Susan Jones' rose
design.
After the meeting, we will go out to lunch at Eleni's At Buckingham,
a short ride from the store. You may have a salad, a choice of four
entrees, dessert, and coffee or tea. Wine may be purchased separately
if you wish. A description of the entrees follows:
| |
Veal Marsala - veal sautéed in butter and swirled in Marsala
wine with fresh sliced mushrooms
Citrus Chicken - chicken sautéed with herbs, orange and lemon
with a touch of honey
Stuffed Filet of Sole - filet of sole with crabmeat stuffing
Vegetarian Lasagna - pasta stuffed with ricotta, red peppers, spinach,
