Blue Lagoons Art and Craft Show and Tell 2017


As usual Renita and I got there before everyone else. We take longer to set up as we have lots of stones and jewelry, requiring us to set up a light bank. It wasn’t long before everyone else showed up and we were pleased that the room was filled!
Jim not only brought his rosaries but also had three cases of wire wrapped stones, along with Mala prayer beads. These are used by people of Eastern religions during meditation and prayer.
Zita and Nancy proudly showed their quilts and other sewing projects.
 A new park resident, Evy filled a table and chairs with her beautiful watercolors!
Shirley demonstrated her kumihimo beading techniques! She has been taking quite a few classes at the local bead and craft store. Her wire kumihimo bracelets are superb!
Others, I am embarrassed that I didn’t get their names, shared their embroidery including many works in progress.

We did miss several artists from past years, they moved to Florida, and several commented that Pat’s classes on Chinese cooking were sorely missed. Still it was a very good show and we hope to see it expand even more in the coming years! Congratulations to all the new artists who proudly shared their work! Clear skies
