Lisa Erlandson, a multitalented and entertaining, compulsive quilt collector, will share her lecture Orphan Quilts – the Good, the Bad and the Ugly (subtitled Bless Her Heart, sub-subtitled What Was She Thinking?)
A humorous look at some of the results of our quilting ancestors. How did some scrap quilts come out looking so great, while others seemed so horrible? Design elements, as well as hue and color value, will be discussed.
On Wednesday she’ll be sharing her workshop: Becoming a Quilt Doctor Do you have the desire to “rescue and render aid” to damaged quilts? Is there a point where you must stop all life support? Learn basic quilt repair techniques as you work on a “practice” project in class.
Lisa is a quilt historian, a published author, a certified AQS quilt appraiser, an AQSG designer, a quilt retreat owner as well as a quilt show judge! You are not going to want to miss this month!

Rescue. Revive. Respect.
Have a soft spot for wounded quilts? This hands-on workshop is your introduction to the art and heart of quilt repair. Learn essential tools, practical techniques, and the guiding ethics behind restoration as you work on a practice project in class.
We'll cover how to assess damage, when to mend (and when to let go), and how to approach repair with respect to both history and craftmanship. Full of tips, tricks, and real-world insight, this class is a favorite among quilters who love giving old, well-loved textiles a new lease on life.
