Open Composite

Judy Andrea

I have not figured out how to do anything very creative with the collage, nor do I have any clever commentary as Randy did, but here it is. The Open composite. I do think these were a terrific group to showcase our talents and humor. I bet Randy is chuckling in heaven over Andrea's Open Toad Shoes!!! Viewers we welcome your comments even if you didn't post, and especially previous MM's.

Nice composite Nedra! Even though you did not verbalize, I believe I can "see" your thought process into why you positioned them the way that you did!

THE MATERIAL MAVENS

We are a group of art quilters who come from various parts of the United States, from the East coast and then south to Arkansas and Texas. We were inspired by the original Twelve by Twelve international art quilting group.

Beginning in September, 2011, we started posting our 12"x 12" art quilts, which were based on themes chosen in turn by our members. For Round One, we posted quilts every two months, always on the 15th of the designated months.

Round Two of The Material Mavens began in October, 2014. Some changes were made: quilts were posted every three months, and the quilts could be be either 12"x 12" or rectangular ones measuring 11" x 14", either horizontal or vertical in orientation.

Round Three of The Material Mavens began in July, 2018. Again, changes have been made. Now those members who wish to stay affiliated with the group are free to post quilts every time or every now and then. Two, our blog administrator collected suggested themes from the members who wanted to remain affiliated. These themes were then pulled at random from a "hat," and they were then assigned in order for the posting dates. Since we had 13 members who wanted to remain, we will be posting quilts every 3 months until 2021! This date is significant and appropriate, because 2021 will be the 10th year that our group has been in existence.
