Julia McLeod
Speaker for June 9 Meeting
Lecture: Rescue Me​
Julia McLeod is a quilt maker living and working in Northern California's San Francisco Bay Area. She specializes in making quilts from rescued textiles, particularly silks. Neckties, saris, kimono and furnishing fabrics all find their way into her quilts. Born and raised in England, Julia worked as a menswear textile designer in the woolen and worsted mills of Yorkshire and Scotland, and later for a company on Savile Row, in the heart of London 's bespoke tailoring industry. She moved to New York City in the early 1990's and America has been her home ever since. Julia enjoys lecturing and teaching on the subject of quilting-making with unusual and reclaimed textiles. Her book "Patchwork Luxe" is published by C & T Publishing.

PVQA Effort Supports
Tech Trek Camp​​
Quilts for STEM
The American Association of University Women sponsors an annual Tech Trek Camp to support young women and girls who have an interest in Science and Mathematics. The camp program was established in 1998. This is an uplifting and confidence building program that PVQA is proud to support. Activities aim to ignite interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics by providing engaging projects and inspiring interactions with female role models. One of the workshops is Quilt Math! Finished quilts are due on June 30.​​​
PVQA members are making quilts for the campers, hoping that our quilts are a warm inspiration for interest in science, mathematics and, yes, quilting, too! If you want to join in, send a message to the organizers via the Webmanager contact on the Board page.
