It has been a while since I posted to my Blog. Today I am sharing some photos taken at a class I taught in Carbondale, IL for the Shawnee Quilters Guild. What a great group, and they enjoyed both the Last Roses of Summer applique class and my Zentangle for Quilters class.
In the Zentangle class we started out the day with learning the Zentangle drawing method. Then in the afternoon we converted those designs to quilting designs. Check out these photos of what they stitched.

Thanks, Shawnee Quilters, for inviting me to visit you again. I'll come back when my book is finished and we'll do more fun things using Zentangle designs.

I was excited reading this thinking you had came to Shawnee, Oklahoma!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the class we took together many years and states ago in the Quad Cities with Judy Warren Blaydon on designing unexpected quilting lines though it was nothing like Zentangle. Do you remember? I think I still have some of those designs all these years later.
