A wonderful lecture and trunk show by Mary Bajcz

Mary Bajcz was our guest speaker tonight.  She gave a wonderful lecture about her journey through the textiles and quilting.  She explained how SERENDIPITY guides her quilting spirit.  She also discussed some of the techniques she uses in her quilts.  ... free cut piecing, bobbin work and her take on art quilting.   

 Her trunk show consisted of over 60 pieces.  ( I know because I took that many pictures of just her quilts. )   I am posting some of the pictures here for your enjoyment.

 About Mary Bajcz ... as stated on her web page:

 I've made quilts for about 35 years and am constantly delighted by the endless ways fabrics can be combined into a beautiful and useful quilt - art that can keep you warm.   I enjoy the serendipity in quilt making.  I start out with an idea, assemble a pile of fabrics, start cutting and sewing and watch to see if good things happen.   They usually do.  I also make smaller art quilts, reversible silk jackets, and loads of handbags.  About 12 years ago I discovered "free cut piecing", a technique that lets me "draw" with my rotary cutter.  It's my artistic voice!

I also knit,  hook rugs, and make lots of handbags.      

 I am looking forward to see what Mary has been up to since the last time she was at our guild in 2005.
