SAQA -Norcal Matting Party

Those Pixeladies know how to party...just sayin' ;^)  I tagged along with my buddy Martha Wolfe to a matting party hosted by Deb Cashett and Kris Suzaki.  The group matted and slipped into cellophane envelopes 50+ gorgeous 4"x 6" art quilts donated for the SAQA Conference in Santa Fe April 25-28.  It was quite a pleasure for several reasons.  First, seeing Deb and Kris again was great.  Second, meeting other members of the SAQA-Norcal group, including one of their new co-reps was a great pleasure.  Third, working with the art work up close and personal was a real treat.

Hard at work: Gayle Simpson and Martha Wolfe, standing.  Noelle Olson, Dee Danley-Brown,  Kris and Jenny Lyon

Feasting:  Gayle, Deb, Noelle, Dee, Chris, Jenny and Martha

And, fourth, Deb and Kris supplied a very yummy and colorful lunch.  Convivial company, lovely weather, gorgeous art work AND food!?   It doesn't get better than that.

I know where I will be Friday night, April 26 7-9pm, cash in hand:  at the Santa Fe Spotlight and Dessert Reception Silent Auction.  Art and food?  Are we seeing a pattern here?

So, if you are going to be in Santa Fe, plan on bidding!  You will be in for a treat.
