Retrospective, the end of a group.

As the saying goes "all good things come to an end". I'm so sad to say my Art Quilts From Around The World challenge group has recently disbanded. I've been a part of this group since 2018 but the group has been around for much longer, and it is sad to see it end. This May was my last entry but I wanted to share the pieces I made through the years with this group as a fond farewell to a group I really enjoyed and learned so much from.  The groups blog is still accessible if you would like to see the works of the other artist.  (aroundtheworldin20quilts.blogger.com)

Several of my other pieces have been posted on this blog and may be found using the search bar.

The beauty of a group like this is you are pushed to think about themes and ideas that might be out of your comfort zone or just not something you would have thought of on your own. It is also fun and inspiring to see how other artists view the same theme.

I will miss this group but look forward to finding another group of artists to work with. 

Have a wonderful day!!
