Come learn the recipe for making beautiful collage quilts when designer, art quilter, teacher, exhibitor and quilt judge, Cinde Ebeling, speaks at Highland Lakes Quilt Guild July 17.
Multi-talented Ebeling is also an agribusiness woman who lives on a farm in West Texas. Nature has always been Ebeling’s inspiration, and she will share her journey with us beginning with her memories of learning to sew at an early age and soon discovering fabric was her primary medium for self-expression.
Ebeling says, “Quilts are really the basics of life. They tie us to the land.” Ebeling’s specialty is known as collage; in the world of quilts, collage is the art of applying multiple pieces of overlapping raw edge fabric to a background.
Spoiler Alert: Ebeling’s recipe for creativity is part chocolate, part music, combined with color and fabric.
