Beyond Glass: Iza Taylor creates very unusual and very original glass art that reflects innovative techniques in glass fusing, painting with light, and combining metals and refractories. The glass she uses is a combination of sheet glass, lamp-worked glass, and dichroic glass, which Iza designs, cuts, and brings to a molten state. The multi-layered surfaces of her pieces reveal images from her dreams, travels and varied experiences. |

A Love Affair With Quilting Karen Boutté is a nationally known designer of original quilts and wearable art — as well as an author, instructor and lecturer. Her love affair with quilting began in 1989 at a family reunion, but it wasn’t until retirement in 1997 that she was able to become the “quilt diva” she is today. Karen’s quilts and teaching techniques are featured in magazines and on television — and her newly published book, Delightful Diva Designs, was released last winter. |
