Tacoma April 18, 2018 Workshop

Tacoma Lake Quilters met today with SUE DUVAL from Minot, ME  - Trunk Show and Workshop. She is president of the Maine Modern Quilters. (you can click on this link and it will take you to their site.
Following you will see some of our projects in progress and the MODERN QUILTS that she showed. She and several others made the quilts. This blog is just to show you the diversity of modern quilting as women put to use their talents so uniquely.
One of the books that inspired her beginning to get into Modern Quilting.
Also note some of the quilts are the back using an influence from the front.

 This is a panel with just a small block at the bottom.
 These were hand appliqued 


 Made by a gentlemen to make a statement!






 This was Sue's latest endeavor....
Made by one of our own she had taken a workshop with Sue.

 This block was a sample of what we did. Of course no two will look alike.
Just had to use our imagination!! 

 Please note these are 'very' candid shots...some were eating lunch or 
working on their project. 
Just note all the fabric....we really got into it!





(Below) Sue, our instructor and some of the blocks that 
were starting to take shape.
Many of us really enjoyed the process because there were no rules.
It was okay to just use scissors or have a little crooked.
And then you had those who wanted precision....we know who they are!!!
Lots of laughter...it was a fun day.
Great time had by all.......See you next month!!
