June 2012 QCC Meeting

Hi Y'all,
This Saturday coming up is the 4th one and already time for our QCC meeting.  We have some great meeting plans for the next few meetings.  We are going to start working on canes including a name cane (right Cheryl?)  to go on our Jon Anderson inspired animals.  So this month we will start with planning our animal and making canes.  July we will probably make more canes and maybe our base animal scuplture.  Hopefully by August we can finish our pieces.  Hope to see you all there.
12:00 at the usual place.

Important Notice - Date change for meeting

April 2012 QCC Meeting

Hi Y'all,

It's time for the April meeting already. This coming Saturday (the 28th) 12 - 4, the usual place. Unless someone else volunteered to do a demo and I just can't remember I can/will demo the sculptural dogwood flower like the necklace I brought for show and tell last time. LMK if that's ok with you all. The suplies are simple: Clay kit (pasta machine, blades, work surface, acrylic rod, hand cleaner wipes...) Polymer clay in white, green, yellow, black, and burnt umber acrylic paint (or what you prefer for antiquing)

                                                           Hope to see you all there.

More Guild Art WoRk done w/ Advanced Sutton Slice at this March Meeting

 
Hello Clayers!

Are you ready for another Saturday of Sutton Slice? We are moving to the more advanced method of adding more than one color, or using a skinner blend in a background or as the color of the design. Also if you'd like to make a completed project from the first Sutton Slice bring the item you wanted to cover w/ the Sutton Slice and we can discuss and work on that as well. Look forward to seeing everyone.

Bring uncompleted Sutton Slice project and items, unmounted deep etched design stamp, please PC (polymer clay) colors that match the design for you next Sutton Slice image and liquid PC, if you don't have I'll bring so don't worry, that is to help mount your design to you item.

Basic Clay Kit: pasta machine and any attachments such a clamp to secure it to the table, acrylic roller, blade, work surface (large tile or glass surface), polymer clay.

(then you bring anything else you like to use, like maybe your handiwipes, deli paper or plastic wrap, your PC texture tools, textured sheets, favorite size circle or square cutter, small spritz water bottle, etc)

I think that about covers it. If you have finished your first basic Sutton Slice project please bring so we can take pics to place onto this guild page to go w/ Feb Guild meeting and then can post what we complete on Saturday for March. Thank you!

supply list

This is the supply list from Cheryl for last time. "You will need your basic polymer clay kit (work surface, clay blades, pasta machine, acrylic rod, wet ones for or somthing for cleaning hands and surfaces), make sure you have a new or sharpened blade, unmounted rubber stamps detailed designs, and colored, black and white, one of these brands will do, Premo, soft Fimo, or Kato clay. "

March meeting

Wow!time flies. Our next meeting is scheduled for this Saturday, 12:00 the usual place. We will be doing Sutton slice part 2. So bring your stuff from last time so we can finish up our projects. If you didn't get to come last time don't worry. I'm sure there will be a recap of the method. I'll try to find the list of supplies and re post it asap.
