2004 PPQG PROGRAMS

A Year of Inspiration

 

In putting together the 2004 calendar for PPQG meetings I have focused on the concept of inspiration. Where do individual quilters/textile artists find inspiration? How do they respond to -- change or interpret -- what inspires them? How does each speaker's work reflect her evolving response to whatever inspires her? When I asked each of our speakers and workshop teaches if she would speak about what inspires her I received enthusiastic responses.

I hope these programs cause each of you to contemplate what inspires you, and how you can more freely and creatively respond to your own particular muse.
