Advance Registration – Quilt Expo 2015 Madison, Wisconsin

Just received my flyer for the 2015 Quilt Expo for early registration. Registering early is important for lectures, workshops and special evening events . . . as there is limited seating for these activities.

This annual event, sponsored by Wisconsin Public Television and Nancy Zieman, is growing every year. I see my friend Eileen Daniels is giving a one hour presentation on making quilted items from vintage textiles. One of about 70 lectures available.

In looking over the flyer there’s a couple of classes that look interesting that I might take this year. The Hands-On Workshop English Paper and Hand Piecing will give me a skill that will be handy when we are traveling and I don’t have room to take my machine.

The featured speaker on Thursday Night is one I’d like to attend. It is a presentation by Dr. Clarence Boswell on Pre-Civil War Quilts and their history with the Underground Railroad.
