Guest Speaker: Kristin Echols
Seminole Patchwork. Then and Now
Kristin began quilting in 1999 when her best friend, Wendy, was pregnant. She wanted to do something special for her first baby, so she decided to make a baby quilt from her bridesmaid dress. After that experience, she decided to pursue quilting as a hobby. It was a colorful and creative outlet to balance with my career as a computer programmer. And she started teaching at her local quilt shop....
This lecture is on the history of the Seminole Indians and their vibrant patchwork technique. Explore their method for using strips of fabric to create intricate designs. She will show some of her Seminole quilts as well as those students have made.
Social time starts at 6:30 p.m.

About Us
The purposes of the MPQG are to preserve the heritage of the beauty, diligence and love embodied in those quilts that have been handed down to us; to acknowledge and encourage a concern for the excellence of design and craftsmanship as we perpetuate this American Folk Art; to become a source of information, education, and inspiration; to further the personal rewards of companionship among quilters sharing a common interest.
