Laura Wasilowski

Explore the artist's quirky mind with this lecture about quilt making in a series.  Enjoy the revelation that one chicken quilt will surely lead to a second, third, or fortieth.  And discover what drives a person to create multiple quilts about a blue chair, garden implements, or unsung kitchen appliances.  All are revealed in this expose, which includes dramatic renditions from Songs of the Fuser.  Laura will display her small quuilts (mini-series) and offer a trunk show of hand dyed fabric and thread from Artfabrik dyers.
