Get your snacks ready and decorate a hat or head piece to join the fun on Zoom. Pam Rocco will be our speaker, followed by the announcement of our Very Special Person award! We will join together for Quilt-O (Bingo for quilters), a Know Your Acronyms game, and end with a virtual version of our Ugly Fabric Contest led by Mac our auctioneer!
To participate in the Ugly Fabric Contest, send a picture of your ugliest fabric along with its size to showandtell@pvqa.org . A small committee will pick the ten ugliest fabrics to be voted on and auctioned this year. Proceeds will go to the Second Harvest Food Bank.

LECTURE
Working in a Series
Monday, December 13 – 7pm
Pam Rocco
I’ve been a quilter for 50 years, and for the last 20, I’ve focused on working in a series, or a group of quilts related in any number of ways. When I started, I made nothing but “britches quilts” from sturdy fabric for an entire year. Now I make shorter series of quilts related by pattern, process, or materials. Some series are brief explorations. Others, I return to after a period of time, and some, it seems will never end. Join me as I share the quilts I’ve made and what I’ve learned on a journey that, it turns out, has been its own reward.
Panel Palooza
Monday, January 10 – 7pm
Cyndi McChesney
Cyndi McChesney will be presenting a lecture called Panel Palooza. She will show a trunk show of her work transforming panels into fabulous quilts.
Got Colour?
The Ultimate Color Lecture
Monday, March 14 – 7pm
Linda Sullivan
Boost your colour confidence and learn to use every colour of the rainbow in your quilts. Linda and Carl will discuss the basics of colour theory, demonstrate colour concepts and how to create and combine dynamic colour palettes, as well as share their tips and tricks on how to find colour inspiration in everyday objects to inspire, infuse and ignite the colour in your next quilting project.
