Come to the Next meeting April 22nd
In this lecture Gunnel will show you how you can print on fabric using “found objects” from A (for Apple) to Z (for Zipper). While screen printing was her first and enduring love, she also loves using ordinary objects to create patterns. So far she must have a collection of 30+ different potato mashers, which she uses to create an infinite variety of patterns and textures. The sole of a pair of winter boots, a golf ball, hair curlers, irons, credit cards – and of course potato mashers – no textured thing is safe from experimenting!. Enjoy the experience and learn how these everyday objects can become the basis for colourful fabrics to use in your quilts!
If you're not a member of the Region of York Quilters Guild, We'd love to see you on April 22nd. You can purchase a $10.00 ticket online here or show up at the door and pay there.

Our very own Quilter
Our very own Quilter Martha Schellingerhoud has created and stitched an award winning quilt and won a CQA first place ribbon. I have seen this quilt in person and it is absolutely stunning and beautiful. The picture below does not do the quilt justice.
