Wisconsin is blessed with talented quilters!

Yesterday my guild, North Shore Quilters Guild, had one of our own as a speaker.  Ethel White is a wonderful quilter with quite a prolific body of work.  She has a special interest in African symbolism.

Ethel owned her own shop for a while.

Show and Tell is always a highlight of of meeting.  We have a lot of contemporary quilters along with a smaller group of traditional quilters.  Everyone enjoys the variety.  The main reason I joined this guild was because of the wonderful speakers they bring in from all over the nation.  I am especially excited because in August David Taylor will be holding a workshop for us featuring his use of photoshop and then the museum in Cedarburg is having him teach a 3 day class on hand applique (his specialty!).  What a treat!
