Meet the Maker
Sarah Maseth told us about her journey from a beginning in making clothes, then on to home decoration projects, and eventually finding her way to quilts. Like many she started with a beginning class and made a sampler. From there she found new classes, new techniques and lots of fabric. Even with her busy schedule of work and family, she manages to create stunning pieces for friends, family and herself. Below are just a few of the many quilts and projects she has made, or is still working on.
Modern Element: Modern Traditional with Kristina Morrow
Kristina walked us through the world of Modern Traditional quilts. She sees this technique as more of it's own genre than just an aspect of modern quilting like scale or negative space. Any traditional block can be stretched and skewed, recolored and re imagined in a modern way. Below are some examples she showed us taken from the 2018 QuiltCon show.
Flying geese made with log cabin blocks
A herringbone done with solids
Not quite your grandmother's version of a garden, but still lovely
Simple hourglass blocks done in different sizes.
