Trunk Show/Lecture May 21, 6pm-8pm ($10 non-member fee)
Trending: Seeing and Developing Patterns in Your Quilting Practice
Approximately 45-60 minutes
How do you develop a quilting style? Do you even need to? What elements of your quilting come together to make your personal aesthetic? Inspiration sources, color choices, shapes, and quilting style all play a role in making our quilts a reflection of who we are. Throughout this trunk show, you will see the recurring motifs and patterns in my quilts, how these patterns create a body of work, and start recognizing the trends in your own quilts. This is an excellent trunk show choice for Modern groups and guilds.
