"It's All About Color! (Or Is It?)" was the title of the program presented by art quilter, artist, and guild member Cat Larrea. Her interesting and informative slide show and lecture about the role of color gave us greater insights into how to choose fabrics for our quilts. Thanks, Cat, for your information and tips.
After the program, guild members showed their latest quilt projects. Many of them have already finished the UFO's (UnFinished quilt Objects) that we have been challenged to complete.
