African Diasporans creating, decorating, and artistically altering by hand

MONTHLY GROUP THEME

Information

We all need some inspiration every now and again, so I thought "lets have a monthly theme!" We would create a piece of work which followed the theme for the month for example: Africa or COLOURS etc.. Then post it on the group page. Whaddayah thinks?

Comment by Akua Lezli Hope on October 31, 2008 at 10:35: I made two things, but the image access didn't work! It asks for a url... so I put the images on flickr and it didn't present them... so i gave up, since i can't show what i made for the challenge... but it lead to all sorts of things... a new line of lariats, and i developed brand new patterns for maple leaves, oak leaves and gingko leaves......

Comment by Matae Reed on October 31, 2008 at 8:44: I am sooo sorry everyone, but I am so behind this month that I don't think I'm gonna finish the October challenge. (Pathetic). I guess I'll have to try again for Novemeber.

Comment by Akua Lezli Hope on October 22, 2008 at 20:18: I've made several gold brown things, Zayunu, the challenge is taking the pictures when there is no longer much sunlight. Getting my aide to fetch my tools is difficult, but i have getting my halogens up from the basement on the list.

Comment by cheryl on October 9, 2008 at 15:14: I finished the orange-pink theme book. I ruined the covers so I just made a quick, slap-dash book for myself. I forgot to take a pic of the rear cover, which features a painted real leaf (pink) on the orange board. Will upload pic. I finished the Ocean theme covers, but have to get more spine cloth in before I can bind the books. I made 2 sets, both featuring the African goddess Oshun. Haven't done the Heat project yet. I doubt I'll be able to catch up before the year's over. Sorry!

Comment by Matae Reed on October 1, 2008 at 14:40: Here's the pathetic explanation for my late September contribution: My girlfriend invited me to a jewelry-making party. Yea! So I get there and it takes me almost an hour to decide what to make, then the little beads kept popping out of my fingers and rolling off of the felty pad that was SUPPOSED to keep them in place! I was a mess! So....I learned to stick with sewing, cause jewelry making is NOT for me, (LOL!) but I did get a cool pair of ocean blue earrings out of the deal!

Comment by cheryl on September 3, 2008 at 5:41: That heat pin is incredible. Btw, I thought I'd declared the August theme at the beginning of it, but I see no evidence of that. If I didn't, I'm sorry. Don't know how I managed to think I had if I hadn't.

Comment by DeeBozzz on August 31, 2008 at 13:53: Can't wait!

Comment by cheryl on July 19, 2008 at 21:04: I LOVE this idea! I can't wait for the first assignment!
