Minnesota Contemporary Quilters
Monday, October 28, 6:30 pm
@Textile Center
Jeannie Spears, one of the founders of Minnesota Quilters, will present: Thanks for the Memories. She is often inspired to make quilts based on photographs taken while traveling. However, their designs have become more sophisticated and challenging over time, starting with simple block-by-block quilts to creating photo collages. She'll show some of the quilts, tell some of the stories, and explain some of the challenges and solutions. Admission free to MCQ members; $5.00 to others. More information: 651-698-2760, [email protected]
