Quilting in the Trees

Last week I ventured out to my guild -- Victoria Quilters Guild http://www.victoriaquiltersguild.org/ for our annual retreat. I taught two classes in an idyllic setting at Pearson College http://www.pearsoncollege.ca/  and the weather cooperated!
On Friday I taught my Photo Illusions class, using digital images printed onto both cotton and silk organza fabric sheets. Students brought their images and we spent the morning selecting and printing and then the afternoon was spent designing their own quilts. Students had a great time, learned lots and created some wonderful work.

Teresa used images of English Bay and the freighters waiting to load.

Kathy's quilt used images of an angel. Any idea where you might find this statue?

Sharon used photos from her garden.

Laine's trip to Newfoundland was her inspiration.

More pictures tomorrow from the Screen Printing class.

Hmmm, the angel statue could be at Ross Bay or, a place for amazing lichen covered statues, Royal roads University. Have a great summer
