I spent a beautiful Sunday at 
Christine Barnes' Luminosity Workshop in Aptos with a bunch of lively wonderful women from 
PVQA.

| Class Sample and Design Wall for Demo | 
 The color theory and auditioning of fabric was a blast.
  | 
| Practice layout of a few of my bits | 
  The pattern is so forgiving and smart - little fabric waste and few joints to match. I will definitely be using it often.  The wheels are turning in my designing brain to make it with my own special spin.

| Cut Demo to help me remember | 
  | 
| OOPS - cools shouldn't be squares! | 
 I tried to travel light and pre-cut squares including my cools without reading the class supply correctly.  Hubby fetched me the batik bucket and came to the rescue.  It was a blessing since I got to do lots of sharing and fabric swapping.

| Layout Begins |

I'll post a final top layout and tell you more about Christine's lecture from last nights meeting. She even let me take a picture with her!
Happy Quilting - 
 
Looks like fun...the quilt looks great.
ReplyDeleteLucky you!! I have 2 of her books and love them.
ReplyDeleteSounds like it was a lovely day. And that pattern looks like one to investigate. Will check her out, too. Always looking for more learning opportunities.
