LAKEPORT >> The Ladies of the Lake Quilt Guild will present Judy Sisneros as Featured Quilter at the annual Falling Leaves Quilt Show. The show takes place in Lewis Hall at the Lake County Fairgrounds, at 401 Martin Street, Lakeport on October 3 and 4. The hours on Saturday are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Judy Sisneros is a teacher, author, quilter and lecturer. She has been enthusiastically sharing her techniques with students since 1993. Her approach is to encourage originality and creativity.
Sisneros’ first workshop was a strip-pieced landscape and her first book was related to that technique, Simply Landscapes published in 1994 and now out of print. Her most recent book is Circle Pizzazz with C & T Publishing. Previous successful books were 9 Patch Pizzazz: Fun, Fast & Finished in a Day has sold over 70,000 copies. Rectangle Pizzazz was published in 2008.
Sisneros believes that as quilters the most precious gifts we give, other than our time, are those we make ourselves. Her goal is to help quilters make wonderful gifts for those they love!
Sisneros will be present both days of the show to talk with attendees about her quilts on display. It is an honor and a privilege for Ladies of the Lake to have an artist of this caliber in the Falling Leaves Quilt Show. She has been quilting since 1987 and though she will continue quilting, she is planning on retiring from the lecture circuit in February, so this might be your last chance to meet her.
