Quilters' Guild Acadienne will feature fiber artist and quilter Judy Holley as the guest programmer at March 22 meetings 9:30 a.m and 6 p.m. at Northwood Methodist Church. Judy, a well known quilt designer and Gulf States Quilt Association instructor, will share her knowledge and talent with us in her program 'Service Quilts With A Twist'. Judy has been featured in a Quilt Inspiration blog post: Treasures of the Gulf States and Folk Life in Louisiana.
Judy is passionate about community service and was instrumental in founding Wasted Women, a quilting group that recycles fabric into community service quilts. Wasted refers to the use of donated fabrics often left over from other projects.
Judy specializes in the New York Beauty and Pineapple Quilts and will be leading workshops Friday and Saturday on constructing the Pineapple block. In this workshop, students will explore pineapple block possibilities.
