June 2022 Membership Meeting

The Impact of Value & Color in Quilting

with Michelle Jackson

Attend NMQA's June meeting, featuring a lecture by nationally known art quilter, Michelle Jackson.  Art in one form or fashion has always been a part of the life of Michelle.  She graduated from The Fashion Institute of Technology and worked as a women’s lingerie designer in New York City.  In 2004, she started combining her new love of quilting with fashion, creating wearable art patterns.

With a love of color and obsession to be more creative she moved quickly into art quilts. “This is where I feel at home; exaggerating color to capture moments and tell stories,” she says, “the most fun part of the design process is deciding what tweak of color to use to help people see what I want them to see, or feel what I want them to feel!”

We'll also have Show & Tell at the meeting!  If you're attending in person, bring your item with you and if you're attending through zoom, send your photos to Kris Lange, klange@email.com at least 48 hours before the meeting
