Recap: Island Batik Modern Batik Challenge...

I'm either going to have to get better at posting in advance/remotely, or learn how to suspend the calendar. For today, I'm going to give a shout out to my wonderful creative compatriots, the Island Batik Ambassadors, and share what we did with the creative prompt for June.These challenges aren't organized with assigned dates - we fit them in where we can, so a recap seems to be the best way to capture all the creativity. There was a lot this month - many of us have a leaning toward modern - and even those who struggled with it continued to impress us with their talents.Island-Batik-Ambassador-Button (295 x 107)Each challenge now has it's own group board on Pinterest; by clicking on the icon above, you get a chance to see pictures of all of the month's projects in one place, and links to the stories behind the projects.  I fit in working with these pieces as I can, and I know a lot of the Ambassadors do as well.  We're an eclectic group - and truthfully, not all of us post every time.Island-Batik-Ambassador-Button (295 x 107)

Our next adventure is the Christmas in July Challenge, and a shoutout to Nan Baker of Purrfect Spots for not letting a little thing like a calendar get in the way of a good design...she rolled both her challenges into one project.  I love that!
Off to complete my Christmas project...stay tuned!
Due to time constraints, this blog will return on Monday, July 18th.
Have a great week!
