Ruth Powers was here to teach a 5-day workshop on Picture Piecing – that’s starting with a photo for inspiration and learning to break it down into easy piece-able sections.

This is a close up of one of Ruth’s award-winning quilts.

This is the start to a piece being created by Corinne Levy of a couple of maple of leaves.

Then here is the finished piece!

After finishing the pricing, Corinne was practicing some free-motion stitching.

Here are couple more closes of two more of Ruth’s marvelous work.

Everyone enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the studio and being able to continue working (or chatting) after hours.

At the first dinner for the workshop, Ruth surprised us when she presented us with a pieced picture of our Dalmatian, Hudson! She said that she use a photo of Hudson that she found on our website. Thank you so much, Ruth!
