Kenya Quilt Guild

March 2019 Meeting

We welcome Kathy Graves of www.nextgenerationquilting.net to Nairobi. Kathy began with classes in Nairobi as soon as she landed and our members were enlightened by a very informative and interesting talk and presentation about Improv Quilts. 

Modern quilting is a fairly recent trend that has taken the quilting world by storm. You will discover a new approach to quilt design that just might open a whole new world of quilting to you.

Our contribution to the Finestre Migranti exhibition in Verona, Italy is finished!  Designed by Navneet Phull and executed by a (fairly) faithful band of quilters over many months, our cathedral window project shows a wildebeest migrating across the Mara, and is embellished with cording, beads, bronze ornaments, and cowrie shells.

Sigrun Hansen is going to hand-carry the beast to Italy this weekend for the April 25-28 Verona Tessile show.I am attaching a photo of some of us at the workshop last Tuesday when we celebrated his completion.

The show and tell from our members was fabulous as usual.
