Donna Mae Norris Will Present "Color For Quilts" at May 10th Meeting

 

Join us on May 10, 2017 for Donna Mae Norris'  presentation

"Color For Quilts"

 

Build your confidence in choosing colors for your quilts in Donna Mae Norris’ talk about how to use color in quilts and be inspired by seeing dozens of quilts with examples of various color schemes.  You will learn about optical mixing, how to use a color wheel, and how to choose colors to get the theme or mood you desire in your quilt.  Every quilt is a piece of art and color is a very important design element in art.

 

Quilt making has been Donna Mae Norris’ passion for over 30 years.  She has made every size bed quilt plus wall hangings, and enjoys making every style from traditional and modern to art quilts.  Her quilts have been exhibited all around the U.S. and she has won numerous awards in competitions including Quilt Festival in Houston.  She was one of the owners of The Patchworks Quilt Shop in south Longmont in the early ‘90’s.

 

Because Donna Mae loves sharing her enthusiasm for quilt making, she has been teaching extensively at quilt shops and quilt guilds all around Colorado and other states for over 28 years.  She teaches classes for both adults and children, and has taught all styles of quilts and at every skill level for each technique.

 

By putting together fabrics for her own quilts and helping students and customers put together fabrics for their quilts, she has tremendous experience choosing color in quilts.  She has also taken art classes and color classes starting in college and continuing into her quilting years.  Donna Mae will share her knowledge about how to use color in your quilts today.
