Quilt talk

 
 
 





 
 


I did a quilt talk at my homemakers club this week.  They asked for a talk on quilting, but that is such a huge topic.   So I started with a slide show of a project from the start to finish in pictures.  This quilt top was made in the 50's which is 62 years  ago.  My client wanted it to be a wall hanging.  So I stippled it, sewed the binding on, and made a sleeve on the back for a curtain rod hanger to support it on the wall.  Then I had brought with me ten quilts that I had made that had different quilting techniques  displayed.  I showed each and then talked about each of their highlights.   It was fun.  I also was the hostess serving coffee.  We had apple pie made from the apples I got from my friend.
