Meeting Report: September 11, 2010

BRPCG September Minutes 2010


Heller all!

Laurie made us some yummy tea. Good to see you again!

Pat has the list together of DVDs to buy. A new suggestion: Lindly Huanani's color mixing.

Bridget brought in our photo album. Everyone please bring photos to fill it – meetings, events, etc.

Suzanne drove over from Knoxville to do her donut demo. What a clever trick! We had big fun trying it out. Let's see some finished examples at the October Clay Day.


Laurie and maggie drove in from Charlotte. Laurie has some gorgeous lentil beads form an extruded cane. Maggie's perfected the art of gauze bracelets.

Mark came back from Waynesville. We didn't scare him off last month!


Amerie came over from Canton to show us the cabochons she's been slaving over. She's getting pretty darned good with them.

Barb has been busy making lizard tails with actual lizards attached. Well not actual –PC lizards actually. She's also become a steampunk.

Janet Johnson came for her 2nd meeting. Lynne Baldwin's becoming a regular.

Karen's been away from clay for a while, practicing her thrift shopper extraordinaire talents. If you need anything hard-to-find, she's probably got it.


Sharon's been working with metal and cold collections. She saw some white tiles on PC Daily, gave the idea her own unique tweak, and produced some 3-D bracelet tiles folks will soon be fighting over. Really creative.

Pat delivered the Munro order. It is so kind of her to do this for us! Barb had ordered some gorgeous texture sheets that most of us hadn't seen before.

Christine & Rhonda also have become Lizard tail addicts. They had a whole herd of the colorful little critters.


We had to have an intervention for Sandra. After many months in the real estate world, we had to teach her the words clay & play.


And for next time:


October 9 is Clay Day – a full day of fun from 9 to 5. Bring things to sell, snacks to share, beads for the Bead jar, and lots of creative energy. We should begin to see supply lists for the demos soon.


For those of us who just barely get started at a regular meeting, Clay Day is the answer. We get the whole day to catch up, share ideas, and learn new techniques. It just doesn't get any better than this. See you all there.
-Bridget, The Quiet One
