Event Details
Quilts have a history of being beautiful and functional textile pieces. Either made by hand or machine, they are a staple in cozy settings. Traditional patterns often utilize geometry, pattern and symmetry, however, the best part of something hand-made is the presence of the artist's hand!
In this workshop, participants can create small quilt squares inspired by the many unique and beautiful textiles pieces of the Gee’s Bend Quilters.
Participants also have the option of bringing in scrap fabric such as old t-shirts, jeans, curtains or other used mementos to incorporate in their quilt squares, implementing a part of themselves, a loved one or important memory into their fabric piece.
