Kaye Evan's BEE UNIQUE Trunk Show

Kaye Evans was our wonderful guild meeting guest in July. She shared with us how to be unique and make a quilts our very own with our own personality being reflected. She had an amazing trunk show and we were very pleasured to have her with us for the evening.

If you remember anything in particular about some of these quilts, please be sure to comment so the rest of us can remember her tricks and tips and how inspired she made us feel.

She precut leaves and packaged them together in different colors and asked her group members to make her a tree block using those leaves. WOW!

The trees were embellished with buttons for leaves!

Fractured Cat quilt

She made full size patterns for her friends, slashed them into a few pieces, gave them all a photo of the purple cat picture along with their section of the pattern, and asked them to make their slashed section of the quilt. She then put it all together!
