    Labels as a Love Language

    Zoom lecture by

    Laura Hartrich

    Thursday, April 27, 2023

    6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. (Arizona Time)


    In this presentation, Laura will talk about how labels factor into her quilt-making practice.  She will share lots of images and discuss technique, inspiration and motivation for creating labels as detailed and unique as the quilts themselves.

    Come to learn and be inspired to make better labels for your own quilts and for the quilts that you pass on to family and friends.

    Everything But Cotton

    Zoom lecture by

    Julia McLeod

    Thursday, June 01, 2023

    7:00 pm - 8:00 pm (Arizona Time)


    When quilters don’t have access to a stash of quilter’s cotton, what

    do they turn to?  In this one hour lecture, trunk show and Q & A

    session we will explore quilts – antique and modern – made of wool,

    silk, polyester and more. We’ll observe how the use of unusual

    materials gives rise to alternative construction techniques and

    design choices.

    The trunk show of Julia’s work shows what you can create with

    neckties, saris, kimonos and other unusual, ‘not cotton’ textiles.
