Club happenings in the North Bay

The second meeting of the mini club in the North Bay brought out miniaturists intent on sharing and socializing. Attendees learned some new techniques and spent time on their own projects—all while getting to know fellow miniaturists.

Barbara Thornton-Hill shared techniques to create the appearance of stone, brick, and wood using foam.

Club members brought their own projects to work on and to share:

Rafael created a Spring basket during the club meeting.
Billie continued to embroider embellishments on this bed cover.
Barbara worked on a roundtable kit.
Carol started landscaping a scene made with a Robin Betterley kit.

The club is open to all miniaturists, regardless of skill and scale. The next meeting will be Sunday, April 14, 2024, in Santa Rosa, CA. Carol will be sharing techniques to create realistic-looking stained glass and bring along materials for attendees to make their own piece in 1:12 or 1:48 scale.

For more information about the club, contact Barbara Thornton-Hill (the NAME State Representative for the North Bay area).
