The plan is that we will have a group of 13 fiber artists who each make a 13" per side art quilt around a specific idea or theme. Baker's Dozen is a term used to signify a purchase at a bakery of a dozen items, the 13th being thrown in as a freebie.laurenfureymoorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10984309018540984255noreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7404833192988399731.post-53106634529741698312008-02-01T14:51:00.000-08:002008-02-01T15:09:32.562-08:00<span style="color:#663300;"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:130%;">Welcome to our brand new Baker's Dozen Art Quilt Challenge group! Hopefully I will find twelve other fiber/art quilters who are ready and willing to spend some time learning new techniques and playing with new ideas.<br />My name is Lauren Fureymoore and I am a quilt artist. My studio name is Painted Poppy Studio in Newport News, Virginia, USA. I would like to do a fairly regular challenge of making a 13" squarish art quilts around a specific theme. I was inspired to start this because of the group Twelve by 12 </span><a href="http://twelveby12.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:130%;">http://twelveby12.blogspot.com/</span></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><br />Once I have 12 other artists signed up, the blog will be available for them to individually post an intro to themselves or whatever they feel inspired to share.<br />I think this will be a lot of fun and it could very possibly turn into a "live" show as I'm lucky enough to have the Peninsula Fine Arts Center right down the road from my house.</span></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7404833192988399731-5310663452974169831?l=bakersdozenartquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>laurenfureymoorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10984309018540984255noreply@blogger.com17
