This morning’s meeting was well attended with 95 present, including several new members. Sharon Fisher, a fabulous quilter from Mount Forest, Ontario was our guest presenter.
The first quilt that she personally finished in the 80’s was a log cabin quilt and was hand-stitched.
Sharon has become a fantastic quilter with decorative stitching on many of her quilts. Her interests and talents have led her to specialize in wool appliqué and embellishments. Much of her work is inspired by designers such as Sue Spargo and Wendy Williams. Sharon’s work combines her love of colour and texture with traditional blocks embellished with wool and various types of yarns and threads.
Enjoy viewing some of her work below. Sharon is pictured with the first quilt given to her by her grandmother on her sixteenth birthday.
