May 2012 Guild Meeting – Kaye England
Q.U.I.L.T.S. members and several guests had the experience of a lifetime at this meeting.   Kaye England, internationally known teacher and author, gave a very informative and entertaining lecture along with a trunk show of her original quilts.  Kaye shared her favorite tips and tools with the group.  She also stressed the need to share the story behind your quilts so the person you made it for understands what the quilt meant to you as you were making it.  And Kaye promised us that sheep don't shrink in the rain!
Kaye also taught two full day workshops. On Friday, May 4th, she taught a Double Dozen class which focused on piecing techniques and how to create traditional quilt blocks in different sizes. On Saturday, May 5th, she taught The Road to Jericho, a pieced central medallion quilt with an appliqué border.
