Here are some ATC's that members brought to share:








Judy Merick made this lovely doll to display some of her favorite ATC's by tweaking a pattern by elinor peace bailey. I find her use of the doll as a display medium quite brilliant and proposed a challenge to guild members to create their own unique ways to display ATC's.

October's suggested theme is Leaves

If you received a card that looks fuzzy in the photos here you can bring them to the next meeting and I will be happy to try it again- the lighting isn't the best at the fire house and I was in a hurry- I appreciate your patience as I learn to photograph things under those conditions- overhead lights -shadows, shaky hands! etc.

Thank you to everyone who participated! Please make sure that you sign and date your cards on the back if possible.
