Yesterday I went to my Guild meeting and our Guest Speaker was Jan Krenz.
She did a nice lecture and showed us some of her quilts.
I have one of her books and she signed it for me.
Took some pics and wanted to share with my quilting buddies.
I wanted to take her class on Friday but due to my surgery could not attend. Bummer :thumbdown:

She said she buys unusual fabricsthat most of us will not buy . First searches in the sale fabric and finds the uglies and turns them into swans.

Wow, ugly fabrics turn into swans for sure. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Looks like she had a good crowd.
