October Speaker

Our speaker for October is Pascale Michalski and her talk is entitled "Moral Fibre"  

Pascale Michalski is 38 years old, and while she’s originally from Luxembourg, she has lived in London/United Kingdom for 19 years now. Since the start of her quilting journey five years ago, she has created many award-winning art quilts, exhibited across Europe and the Middle East, and contributed to many quilt festivals. Her quilt Meet Me Today has been awarded Excellence in Machine Quilting at the Festival of Quilts 2021 in Birmingham, UK. By getting involved in events, she doesn’t just support her quilting community; she also supports the craft she loves so much. 

Examples of her work

September Meeeting

 Janet and Kathy from Traverse brought some interesting, unusual and colourful work along to the September meeting.  

Traverse is a well established group of mixed media textile artists who create and display their work at a professional exhibition level.  

They pieces displayed were made using a variety of techniques and materials, including stitch, felting, yarns, metallic elements to name but a few. 

They encouraged members to take a closer look at the work and many ladies did so. 

We hope to book the group for a future workshop as there seems to be sufficient interest.
