Today I am posting about our SoTA Hats..First pic has the doll pin Cindy and Jody made for each over /or 50 ...all now have these...the pin on the side is from our first group winning Hoffman Challenge 2008. Forepart has a tomato pin cushion I embroidered on each hat....Tiara on the top is ....oops I forgot why we put them on there...giggles...I will have to check with the girls....sometimes my brainpower gets stuck on pause when trying to recall a past knowledge....:0) Of course on this side I have this years pin from the Hoffman Challenge Group Winner....I know... I already told you all "We Won"....I have always said I am like a little child praise me and I will do more to get another pat on the back.......Being a part of the SoTA Sisters has made me impossible....They are so great they make me look good...I am so proud of our accomplishment....I just can't keep quite....give me a little time I will move on I am sure....At my age I am absorbing all that life has to offer...As a child I never won a trophy, award or prize....So bare with me...I am celebrating the youth and the senior in me...:0)
On the embroidery machine I placed our SoTA name and what the letters stand for under the letters...."Society of Textile Artisans"....We also have our own cards..... although we have been a group long before 2007 that is the year we selected the SoTA name....The Ol'Blogger
We are a group of women of different personalities and ages who blend together to make for an interesting and fun group. Our group is dedicated to creating art using various textiles and other mediums. Our interests include sewing, knitting, quilting, doll making, purse making, felting, beading, jewelry making, stained glass, glass blowing, glass fusing, mosaics, and altered books. We share our ideas and our time, to create items that are unusual, traditional and fun. Our fun meter is more important than our gas meter. We fill it at least once a month during our monthly meeting where we have show and tell to show projects we've completed, talk about new projects and share ideas. And the food!! As textile artists we are such lucky people. We find pleasure in simple things; the colors of hand-dyed fabrics, a spool of lustrous thread—we almost hyperventilate when we go through the door of a bead store! How fortunate we are to have passion to create and to achieve such satisfaction in what we do.
