World Quilt Show Florida

I'm happy to be going on to Florida, West Palm Beach after Houston Festival, to teach 3 workshops at the World Quilt Show Florida Nov 10-12. Hope you can join me for Opal Fever, Oil Stick Intensive or Monoprinting Magic. I have added some more information about the show, for readers who may be able to attend.
November 10 - 12, 2011
Thursday, Friday, & Saturday 10:00am - 6:00pm
Admission: $12 (Includes Re-admission) • Children under 16 Free!
Even more exciting things have been added to this year’s program:

Special Luncheon/Lecture: On Saturday, November 12, at 12:30pm Dierdra McElroy will share her experiences growing up in Tahiti. The island paradise has it’s own traditional form of quilt making which is intertwined with every aspect of its culture and history. The audience will be transfixed with historical details, cultural norms, and exotic photographs of nature as they are laid side by side with the Tifaifai (tee-fay-fay) design that honors its existence. Dierdra’s presentation includes lunch - Penne alla Bolognese, Salad, fresh baked garlic breadsticks, iced tea or coffee, and chef’s selection of dessert. Tickets for the luncheon / lecture are available for $28; seating is limited.

The Marchants Mall at a Mancuso Show Management quilt festival is always eagerly anticipated by quilters, textile artists, and sewers who can’t wait to stop ‘til they drop! this year, Creative Curves and its owner, Virginia Walton are celebrating their return to vending and teaching in Florida by offering the students in Virginia’s workshop - "No More Showers, Just Spring Flowers" - a 25% discount on workshop fabric kits and the Creative Curves Ellipse Ruler set needed for class.
