Talk – Topic TBD

‘Wildly Careening Into Quilts: What I learned by not knowing what I didn’t know.’

Take a wild ride as Kim Lapacek recounts the journey from her first quilt to the present. Through the years many of Kim’s quilts have been inspired by challenges, which helped tease out her true quilting style – an “oddly beautiful” display of color, motion, and texture. You will see traditional quilts created quite untraditionally, sampler quilts with a twist, and a wide variety of art quilts.

“Challenge Quilts” Talk   Through the years many of Kim’s quilts have been inspired by challenges, which helped tease out her true quilting style – an “oddly beautiful” display of color, motion, and texture. You will learn about how Kim takes in a challenge, ‘dreams’ about it for inspiration and comes up with a final quilt that is completely outside the square of normalcy.  Sit back and enjoy as you look at Kim’s award winning quilts and here the history behind them.

More information about my lectures and workshops can be found on my website HERE.

If you or your guild are interested in having me come and talk to your guild please feel free to contact me at lapaceksorchard@gmail.com.
