  Improvisation! You don't always need a pattern to create a beautiful quilt. Lisa Ruble can get us started making quilts of our own design. Nothing to buy. Bring your own fabric and your sewing machine. Lunch will NOT be provided, so bring that too.

  Lisa is a nationally known modern quilter who has expertise in many areas including design, writing, and modern quilt techniques.

  • Program - Hooked on Improv Quilting --  In this trunk show, Lisa Ruble will share the quilts that illustrate her journey from traditional to modern quilting.  Each quilt comes with a story about the artists who inspired her work (Victoria Findlay Wolfe and Gwen Marston, for starters!), as well as plenty of close-up looks.  She will walk us through the process of sewing a wonky log cabin block, her personal favorite!  If you're interested in exploring the no-rules world of improv piecing and the design doors it can open, this is the lecture for you!

  Doors open at 5:30 pm.  Bldg. must be cleared by 8:00 pm.

SO, if you have a little trouble settling on colors for a quilt don't feel too bad!  In this program Allison Owens will shed some "light" on the issue of color from her unique perspective as a quilter and a chemist.  Come and build your knowledge of how colors "play together" and leave with a new confidence to face the Kona wall!
