On Friday, I returned to the Lakeside Quilters at Bluehaven for a Serendipity Circles workshop. I taught my Making Waves workshop to the group last year and was thrilled to see some of the results including this piece Where I Come From by Peggy Druitt
At that stage, Peggy had only been quilting a few months. She was emboldened to explore a variation of pinless curved piecing to create the autumn toned background to her biographical piece depicting memories of her childhood in Canada.
It makes me so happy to teach students a technique and to see them create their own work. And it’s always instructive to reflect on where you come from both personally and creatively.
