Workshop - In Person
|
For this workshop I would provide a choice of patterns for students to work with a cat and a dog. This would give students an opportunity to learn the fabric collage technique, work it out on a small project before embarking on their own portrait of their own pet at a later date. Part of this workshop I will give instructions on how to make the enlargement and pattern of their pet. If students have access to a scanner/printer they could do this during the class. Sewing machines not required. |

"Word Salad, Fashionistas and Girlfriends"
Fun, entertaining, and amusing with Word Salad, Fashionistas and Girl-friends and a few Angry and Not So Angry Women, I chronicle how quilting frames and tells the story of my real and imagined life and my love of storytelling that took me from fashion design to traditional, hand-pieced miniatures to quilts to sleep under to cartoon quilts to fashionistas and angry and not so angry women.

Indigenous Americans have been sewing, weaving, making pottery and other crafts for thousands of years.
This lecture covers a tumultuous period in Native American culture beginning in 1880, when Native lands were taken away, buffalo herds were decimated, forced relocations were happening all over North American, and children were forced into off-reservation boarding schools.
Indigenous North Americans spent the 1880s and the next few decades learning to survive. During this time, a fascinating shift took place as some makers turned their needle skills to quilting and this lecture will explain how, remarkably, in spite of this historic chaos, that transformation happened. While quilting skills were forced on some women, others came to quilting willingly.
Learn the significance of the eight-pointed Star quilt and why quilts are the cornerstone of Indigenous give-away traditions.
Meet some of today’s makers who make stunning art quilts and powerful story quilts.

American Seams captures the stories of three quilters. These women carry a matriarchal responsibility as keepers of people, land, and culture. They developed their art through the metamorphosis of motherhood and domestic responsibilities, and use quilting to support their survival. With this film, I wanted to simulate the richness of experiencing a quilt - noting the meticulous process, materials, and methods, while hearing the stories that the quilt itself may hold. As each woman has a different approach to quilting, each vignette has its own style as well. The importance of interior and exterior places, the motif of hands, and the de nu meau of the quilt portraits creates a visual quilt of what it means to me to be a woman in the contemporary American West. |

Jenny Bowker married a diplomat and took up quilting. While following him, they lived a total of fifteen years in Arab and Islamic countries. This might seem irrelevant to quilting, but it influenced her subject matter and much of her work reflects her love of the Middle East. As they moved to different countries her quilts record the amazing places she loved and people she met - with their stories and culture. |
