Introducing a particular summertime Thursday Night time sequence—Fascinating Material Collage Bugs and Butterflies—dwell from my studio!
Beginning mid-July and for 4 Thursdays, I invite you to hitch me by way of Zoom to play with material and create an interesting insect collage—patterns of beetles, butterflies, or a cicada specifically designed for this class, shall be accessible.
Summer season is all the time an amazing season to have fun bugs as an entire, however the summer time of 2024 is a very particular second for a celebration of cicadas. Trillions of cicadas emerged this 12 months in 17 states. Alas, the place I dwell in Maine was not one among them. I envy these of you who’ve been surrounded by the raucous din of those cyclical bugs.
I’ve had a fascination with cicadas for so long as I can bear in mind—my collage quilt “Cicada Summer season” (picture above) is a 2005 interpretation of reminiscences. I grew up in Maryland, and cicada nymphs would emerge from the bottom of our entrance yard maple tree, then molt out of their larval casings as winged adults. While you’re in elementary college, the idea of “broods” that will solely emerge each 7 or 13 or 17 years was incomprehensible when ready even one 12 months felt like an eternity. I might search the tree trunk each summer time for any empty cicada shells clinging onto the bark and, in my reminiscences, there was cicada track to be heard yearly. It was the sound of summer time.
So in celebration of this 12 months’s “tremendous” emergence of cicadas from each 13 and 17 12 months biking broods, I’m designing a new sample—a cicada, after all—that can be utilized as the bottom of a brand new material collage undertaking. While you join the July/August Comply with Alongside, you may select one among my free bug or butterfly patterns—both the yet-to-be-released cicada sample, or one other selection from my patterns. You might be additionally welcome to create your individual insect design to work together with me.
Every presentation will start with a slide present to get you began or to catch you up with earlier week’s progress on my bug collage after which proceed with a dwell demonstration. There shall be alternatives to ask questions all through the session. I encourage people to observe, hear, and ask questions throughout our time collectively, then work on their very own undertaking later.
As with earlier Thursday Night time occasions—reminiscent of February’s Quilter’s Fantastical Trophy Fish Comply with Alongside—you’ll obtain a hyperlink to the recording of every session. These hyperlinks will show you how to catch up should you miss an evening and shall be yours to evaluation after every presentation, and the category as an entire, has ended.
