Our Speaker on Saturday is Jane Haworth. She is an award-winning professional qulter specializing in making nature inspired raw edge fabric collage quilts using her own hand dyed fabrics and commercial fabrics. Haworth lectures and teaches classes at quilt guilds, quilt shops and quilt shows and festivals, encouraging students to go out of their comfort zone and “just create!” She has a new book out called,” Capture Your Own Life with Collage Quilting” that is available on Amazon.
At Saturday’s meeting Haworth will present a combo slideshow and trunk show. You will learn more about the Fabric Collage trend, who’s making fabric collage and how Haworth makes her fabric collage quilts. See various examples of her work over the years, her progression from only making fish quilts, working through various themes to her newer collage pieces. You will also learn how to make an enlarged pattern suitable for collage, the types of fabric and tools you will need and Haworth’s collage technique using glue.
Information and preregistration for the workshop by Haworth on Sunday, March 10 is available by advance reservation at the guild meeting or by calling Gretchen Moore at 707-459-3141. Cost of the workshop is $40 plus an optional kit for $30. Set up time is 9:30 am and start time is 10 am. Haworth will provide a choice of patterns for students to work on a cat or a dog. This will give students an opportunity to learn the fabric collage technique, work it out on a small project before embarking on their own portrait of their own pet later. Haworth will give instruction on how to make the enlargement and pattern of their pet.
