Meeting Minutes 9 Oct 2012
23 present
Show & Tell:
**We started with Show and Tell since we’d been crunched for
time the last couple of meetings and it was good to see what people have been
practicing, piecing together, and creating.
Welcome & Announcements:
**Springs Paper has opened on the SE corner of Maizeland and
Academy since Xpedx closed.
Coupons were passed out to encourage us to shop there!
**Please start saving wire hangers to use in the dorm rooms
during conference. We will collect
them sometime next spring.
Presentation:
**Diane F. from Boulder came down to show us how to make
paper booklets as small journals or cards. We folded a 5 ½”
x 12” sheet of paste paper/text-wove/semi-stiff paper into a tri-fold and
stitched lighter weight papers inside to create a booklet. Arches Text Wove, Canson’s Mi Tienes,
or charcoal papers work really well for this project. Thin papers, papers with loose gouache, or lined patterns
would not be suitable. PVA glue is
her glue of choice so the paper doesn’t wrinkle. Thank you, Diane!
