FUZZY FELTERS - The Adventure Takes a Detour - First Mail Date June 30, 2009
The third felted circle journal for our Group will be taking a detour. The main rules will remain as specified in the first two journals and will be in accordance with ATCsforALL Circle Journal Guidelines.
Specific changes for our Third Journal will be as follows:
1. Each month, one journal page will be mailed to the assigned member by the last day of the month.
2. Each page must contain felting – either wet-felted or needle-felted.
3. Our ‘detour’ will involve the use of mixed media in addition to felting. The mixed media can include but is not limited to the use of other techniques such as embroidery, beading, unusual media (wire, paper, metallic embellishments, fabric, found objects, etc.).
4. Each member will pick a theme, size for her page (example 8”h x 6”w; flowers), and primary color choice (not required).
5. Members can specify that they would like the page to be primarily felted. (Since this is a felting fibers group.)
6. Each member will specify which edge is to have a solid one inch border. This border will be used for bookbinding purposes or a border for hanging.
7. Each page can be made in a ‘chunky book’ style with fibers, beads, etc. hanging from the edges. (Not required.)
8. Members will notify the group if there will be an unexpected ‘absence’ from the Thread (vacation, illness, etc.) and will post on the Thread anticipated return.
9. Members will be allowed to mail pages early or late, but must post on the thread and maintain contact with the assigned Monthly Partner.
THE FIRST MAILING WILL BE BY JUNE 30, 2009.
