May brings us flowers and Quilts, Quilts, Quilts!
Our own Karen Foster will present her lecture and trunk show titled “Motivation and Method – an inside look at my quilts and creative journey.” Karen is a local prolific quilter who is generous with sharing her techniques and ideas. She is an active participant in PVQA and the local Modern Quilt Guild. Karen has been waiting to share her ideas and quilts with us until we were back in person. So, put on your mask, call a friend, and come out on May 9th to Temple Beth El.
There will be no workshop this month.
Technique night is coming!!! Our guild is putting on the annual Technique Night on April 11th live and in person! For those new to PVQA, every year we enlist our guild members to share some of their expertise in short demonstrations. There will be eight enthusiastic teachers from our guild ready to demonstrate and teach some fun quilting methods. You will not have time to visit all of the tables, but there will be people showing their skills and helping you to improve your skills in the areas of Kawandi, Seminole piecing, attaching a sleeve by machine, Sashiko, English Paper Piecing, The Accuquilt machine, and more! So….COME ON OUT!!!! Visit with friends and get inspired. Remember – Wear your mask, bring proof of vaccination, a spring fat quarter, your name tag, and a water bottle! We will also be having Show & Tell in person for the first time in 2 YEARS! So many things to remember. Can’t wait to see everyone!
Boost your colour confidence and learn to use every colour of the rainbow in your quilts. Linda and Carl will discuss the basics of colour theory, demonstrate colour concepts and how to create and combine dynamic colour palettes, as well as share their tips and tricks on how to find colour inspiration in everyday objects to inspire, infuse and ignite the colour in your next quilting project.
The February 14 meeting will be devoted to work on the quilt show.
The purpose of the Pajaro Valley Quilt Association (PVQA) is to encourage the art of quilt making which includes acquiring and sharing knowledge of quilt designs and quilt techniques; preserving and continuing the tradition, culture and history of quilting; encouraging quilt making and collecting, sponsoring and supporting quilting activities, including outreach programs, and providing education meetings.
