Demonstration, everyone welcome
March 31: Thread Sketching and Pillows, 7 p.m. Thread “painting” and thread “sketching” are techniques to create realistic effects on art quilts or portrait quilts. By studying color values and dimension, you can “paint” an object with thread or use thread as the “paint” with fabric to enhance the play of light and shadow. Sandy Salazar will present the step-by-step process she uses to create the thread-sketched flowers and images on her pillows, including some tips and tricks in exploring this technique.
Movies, Wednesdays at 1 p.m. Free popcorn! All are welcome!
April 1: Unbroken rated PG13, runs 137 mins. Based on best selling book and epic drama that follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis Zamperini.
April 8: Wild rated R, runs 115 mins. With absolutely no experience, driven only by sheer determination, Cheryl hikes more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, alone. Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddens, strengthens and ultimately heals her.
April 15: Imitation Game rated PG13, runs 113 mins. An intense and haunting portrayal of a brilliant, complicated man, The Imitation Game is about a genius who, under nail-biting pressure, helped to shorten the war, saving thousands of lives; credited as the pioneer of modern day computing.
