Challenge Yourself: Idea to Reality presented by Pat Pauly
The art quilt world is full of bizarre ways to tease out and work through themes, fabric choices, or (at worst) deadlines. Take a look at how Pat Pauly embraces the challenge, decides a solution, and solves the problem with a new and refreshing twist. Be sure to take notes on how to use a challenge to turn obtuse ideas into successful art quilts. The PowerPoint presentation is full of examples, with more than 300 images. Inspiration and ideas plus!
