Lecture 1: Finding Pride & Joy in Quilting, My Journey in Quilting
My presentation, titled "Finding Pride and Joy in Quilting," spans 60 minutes and delves deeply into my personal journey through the art of quilting. Beginning with traditional quilting practices, I explore my evolution into designing intricate, large-scale Foundation Paper Pieced (FPP) quilts and patterns.
Throughout the session, I cover a range of foundational topics in FPP, including insights gained from my own experimentation in design, the essential elements for successful pattern drafting, common pitfalls to avoid, and practical tips and techniques to enhance FPP skills. Additionally, I discuss modern approaches to color and fabric selection, strategies for minimizing bulk, and other advanced techniques vital to creating quality quilts.
My presentation style is highly interactive, allowing ample opportunities for attendees to pose questions tailored to their interests. I complement these discussions with live demonstrations illustrating key concepts and a curated trunk show featuring select quilt pieces.
