Guild Meeting – “The Ugly Fabric Scraps with Color”

With Carole Liebzeit - Wyoming

Christ Our Savior Lutheran  Church



Carole Liebzeit from Wilson, Wy will present The Ugly Fabric Challenge


Carole is all about color and design! She travels the world inspiring fiber artists and quilters to stretch their color boundaries and creative spirt.  Her degree in art, use of the color wheel, nature, tribal textiles and extensive travel have all contributed to her popularity and success. A forty year background in art education allows for a progression of skills to be introduced and a color confidence developed in a relaxed atmosphere.

Her work revolves around traditional books with clear, bright colors used in unconventional ways!  Bring your most challenging fabric to the meeting and sit back for a thoroughly enjoyable, humorous fabric experience as Carole pulls fabrics from her inventory that will make those ugly fabrics sing.  Be sure to bring the most difficult fabric you have.  This is very educational and fun at the same time.
