SUMMARY:06/18/26 Cyanotype: Blue Printing History and Modern Explorations Program
DESCRIPTION:Join contemporary cyanotype artist Jessie Swimeley for a discussion of the history of cyanotype– how it came to be and its historical uses. Learn how she puts a modern spin on her work and explore examples of other cyanotype artists working with textiles.\nJessie Swimeley is a contemporary cyanotype artist based in the Treasure Valley. Her lifelong passion for analog photography has evolved into exceptional photo and print-based mixed media art. \nGrowing up in Wyoming\, Jessie found a deep respect and love for the wild and untamed spaces of the American West. She began taking photographs with her father at an early age and processed her own film and prints. She received her BA in Photography from the University of Oregon.  \nWith the glut of  technology at our fingertips Jessie has made the intentional switch back to more tangible and analog processes. The pairing of cyanotype with encaustic satisfies her love of process and allows her to capture the raw beauty of the natural world. \nYou can follow her on Instagram @jessies6005 to see her latest works and projects or explore her work on her website jessieswimeley.com. \nJessie will also be teaching a cyanotype workshop for the guild on June 27th.

SUMMARY:06/27/26 - Discover the Blues: Cyanotype Basics Workshop with Jessie Swimeley
DESCRIPTION:No Sewing Workshop \nTreasure Valley artist\, Jessie Swimeley\, will guide her students through the process of using CYANOTYPE – an historic photographic process that can be applied to fabric or paper. \nCyanotype creates beautiful blue and white prints using UV radiation (the sun) and the shadows of objects like leaves\, lace\, keys\, small trinkets\, or large format negatives such as photographs. It is an easy to learn and fun process that brings creativity and your own special magic to quilting projects.\nYou will learn the basics of cyanotype printing including the chemistry used\, how it works on different surfaces\, and composition. You may choose to use your own photographic negatives or to use a variety of organic materials in your creations. You will walk away with several of your own prints that can become a quilt block or be added to other projects. \nPlease Note: that Cyanotype is best suited for art quilts. The images you create will degrade if they are washed or come into frequent contact with the oils from skin. \nKit Fee: $10 \nSupplied by Instructor:\n• Paper\, for making prints\n• Fabric\, for making prints\n• Chemistry\n• Objects for printing\n• Optional: photographic negative for interested students\, see note below under Student Supply List \nSupply list for students:\n• Notebook and pencil/pen\n• Optional- Unique items to make prints with\, the best items have a strong flat silhouette – examples: keys\, lace\, small items\, fancy glass\, leaves and flowers\n• Optional- Photograph to turn into a negative 3 x 5 or 5 x 7- this MUST be sent to programs@boisebasinquilters.org at least 10 days before the class so Jessie can prepare the negative to work with during the workshop. \nClass registration will be open to non-members on May 27 and the last day to cancel with refund is June 15\, 2026.

SUMMARY:08/20/26 Modern Quilting: A Twist on Tradition - Darla Christiansen - Programs
DESCRIPTION:Explore characteristics of Modern Quilting\, and find out how a modern approach to quilting is\, in many ways\, a twist on tradition. See quilts that have been exhibited at QuiltCon in a slide presentation\, followed by a trunk show with members of the Boise Modern Quilt Guild. \nDarla Christiansen is a Boise native and a past president of the Boise MQG. Her quilt making leans heavily toward scrappy and she often uses rescued fabrics that otherwise might be destined for the landfill. She delights in the challenge of creating beautiful things from others’ discards\, and describes her process as design-build. When she’s not sewing (which is most of the time)\, you’ll find Darla on her bike\, in a kayak\, tending to her yard\, feeding the cat and finding outdoor adventures with her husband.
