Thanh tells of a retreat he is attending.
Hi everyone
It’s been a long time since I’ve had any news to share because I just haven’t done much sewing this year. Well, I hope to kickstart things back up with a week long quilting workshop.
While I mainly sew garments and the occasional bag, I’m currently at an art workshop called Alegre Retreat that focuses on quilting. My wife and I were researching upcoming classes with Paula Kovarik who taught a free motion quilting class last year in Tennessee, and discovered Alegre Retreat in Gateway, CO. Unfortunately, Paula’s class was full, but I was able to get into a class that explores painting fabric with different tools and techniques taught by a quilter from Austin, TX named Sherri Lipman McCauley.
We just finished day 1 of 5, and I don’t have a lot to share yet but will have some photos next month. In the meantime, I’ve attached photos of quilts from this year’s teachers and a couple of next year’s.
Regards,
Thanh
