Gretchen Crozier writes,
"I struggled in school until I got my hands on fabric, then magic happened for me. I made clothing and theatrical costumes. The quilting bug hit me hard in the early 1990s. The quilts I am showing in this exhibit were all made in response to various challenges. I enjoy the thrill of a new challenge! My guild, Amador Valley Quilters, has stimulating projects requiring the use of a variety of media and techniques."
See Gretchen's "Life's a Challenge" exhibit at the Pacific International Quilt Festival coming this October to the Santa Clara Convention Center.
We enjoy quilt challenges here at TQS as well. Watch:
Show 2106: TQS Challenge with Meg Cox, Alex Anderson, and Ricky Tims
