In addition to wall art providing a much needed splash of spring the collective revealed their “Grey Matter” challenge pieces. Each member received a small packet of grey fabrics and was asked to use at least 2 of the fabrics in a small open-themed art quilt. Please stop by through the month of March to view the exhibition.
