SUMMARY:Quilt Day Lecture: Debbie Grifka
DESCRIPTION:Debbie Grifka is a textile artist based in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. Having fallen in love with fabric as a child\, she has expressed that love as a garment maker\, a quilter\, and now as a textile artist. \nBy the example of her parents – and the stories told of extended family on the other side of the world -Debbie learned that she came from a long line of practical makers who sewed\, knitted\, or built the things they wanted and needed. That “can do”attitude helped shape the sewist\, quilter and artist she has become. \nDebbie’s current series of art quilts continues her longtime interest in line with occasional detours to explore shape and text. She uses limited color palettes and natural fibers such as cotton and linen as well as both hand and machine stitching. \nDebbie’s  work has been published in many books andmagazines. She has also exhibited her works nationally and internationally. She can be found online at\ndebbiegrifka.com\, Instagram (@debbiegrifka)\, and Facebook (Debbie Dunn\nGrifka).
