Lecture by Ann P. Shaw
“Playing with Fabrics”
Lecture description: Unusual fabric choices is a hallmark of my pictorial quilt style. In this presentation, I will discuss the design qualities inherent in printed fabrics and the ways fabric choices contribute to the overall visual impact of a quilt. Quilts from many ears as well as my own work serve to illustrate how I select and audition printed fabrics that bring pictorial quilts to life.
This lecture follows the business meeting on Quilt Day.
