Would you like some inspiration to get started making art quilts? Are you afraid that it’s too hard and only gifted people can make art quilts? Then this lecture is for you! I will talk about how to get started making art quilts from a traditional stand point and work my way up to making the giant art quilts like the 3-D Explosion series. I will discuss art fabrics and techniques to make them as well as show samples. This is a trunk show if you are within driving distance!
