From Passport to Patchwork
Pack your creativity and grab your passport, it’s time for a quilting adventure! In Passport to Patchwork, Lynn invites you to explore how travel can inspire your next quilt. From breathtaking landscapes to tiny travel details, you’ll discover how to turn memories into meaningful designs that tell your unique story. Lynn will share her creative process, from choosing photos that spark ideas to creating quilt blocks that capture the spirit of a place. This lecture will open your eyes to the endless inspiration found in travel and you’ll gain a deep appreciation for how quilts can become souvenirs of your adventures and a reflection of your creative journey. Attendees will leave with ideas on how to draw from their own experiences to create art that reflects their personal journeys and passions.
