Art From Cloth is an annual art exhibit presented by Extreme Quilters of Southern California. It opened this past Thursday at the Thousand Oaks Community Gallery in T.O., California and runs through 9/27/23.
The Show is open Daily from 10am to 5pm. There is no admission fee.
A bonus feature of the show is always our Gift Boutique. You will mostly find small art works by our members in the boutique – ranging from fine jewelry to hand dyed fabric and pottery. You may even find a previously sought-after issue of an art journal or a special book that will guide you in your stitching adventures.
Annual Challenge Quilts
Every year the group comes up with a special theme for our quilt challenge. This year it was – to design and make a quilt that portrays an Idiom or Adage.
The American Heritage Dictionary defines Idiom: A speech form or an expression of a given language that is peculiar to itself grammatically or cannot be understood from the individual meanings of its elements, as in keep tabs on.
