Lecturing Tonight at the Main Street Guild in Round Rock, Texas
I'll be doing my lecture tonight on "Modern Quilting: Philosophy or Aesthetic" to the Main Street Quilt and Thread Guild in Round Rock, Texas. Some ladies from the Austin Modern Quilt Guild will be attending for a trunk show of modern quilts.
Meetings are held from 7-9 at the Round Rock Public Library, 216 East Main Street, Round Rock, Texas. Doors open at 6:30pm.
Fun times and I'll see you there!
I'm lecturing at the SAQA Texas May meeting
I'll be presenting my lecture Modern Quilting: Philosophy or Aesthetic to SAQA Texas on May 5th. The Studio Art Quilts Association is a pretty interesting bunch of artists. I have lots of respect for art quilters and what they are able to do with fabric. In many ways, art quilters paved the way for modern quilters. The challenges both movements faced in their early days are similar. I'm sure I'll learn quite a bit from them both in technique and history. The meeting is open to SAQA members only, but if you are interested in joining, check out their website.
As for posting quilts, I'm hoping to get back to posting this summer when my son starts pre-school full-time. I started a business, a new job, I'm helping plan QuiltCon and I'm still a SAHM the majority of the time. My plate is overflowing in many wonderful ways that I am thankful for! Although I do miss this blog and all you super amazing quilters.
I imagine I'll have a ton of amazing work to search through once I'm back in the game. I'm looking forward to it!
I love modern quilting and the fantastic people I meet in our world of quilting. I love the debates, the lovers and the naysayers. I am constantly inspired and amazed by all of you. I hope to meet many of you in Austin 2013. The last few years have been amazing and I can't wait to see what will happen in the next few years!
XOXO,
Heather

I'm sorry I've been gone so long, I didn't mean to. QuiltCon has taken lots of my time, but I promise it is going to be amazing!
I've been very busy...
...working on this.
I'm beyond excited and hope to meet you all at QuiltCon in February 2013.
Quilts back later this week.

Modern Quilting - Philosophy or Aesthetic?
I’m presenting this lecture at the Austin Modern Quilt Guild on tonight at 6:30pm. It is being held in the absolutely lovely space of Form and Fabric.
The lecture will cover the philosophy of modern quilting and how it impacts modern quilt design. I’ll also give a brief history of modern quilting and its early influencers, with an eye toward the tension that exists between the philosophy and aesthetics of modern quilting. I’ll also provide a review of common design features in modern quilting and key quilters in the movement.
More details are on the Austin Modern Quilt Guild site. Hope to see you there!
Finally, THANK YOU to all the quilters who are letting me feature their work in my presentation!
