Plan now to attend my upcoming (this Saturday 10/5!) lecture at the Fullerton Arboretum…
Fullerton Arboretum: Victorian History Series
Victorian Quilts: Origins and Influences
Saturday, October 5, 2-4 p.m.
From the richest satins to the humblest calicoes, quilts are truly an American craft. Enjoy a lovely afternoon at the Arboretum as I present a trunk show and discussion of Victorian Era Quilts, their origins and how those quilts influence today’s quilt makers. In addition, I invite you to play “Stump The Quilter” by bringing in your family quilts for me to identify the pattern and place in historical context. As an instructor for the North Orange County Community College District and a published quilt designer, my love of sharing the quilting craft is evidenced in my weekly classes, my collection of both vintage and new quilts and on my blog, www.LynBrown.com.

One response to “Victorian Quilts: Origins and Influences Lecture At The Fullerton Arboretum”
We visited the Saratoga National Battlefield site on Monday this week. “Burgoyne Surrounded” is on my quilts to make list someday list, and I was delighted to discover your patterns for the traditional block, full of quick piecing and clear graphics. Thanks for posting them. And I guess thanks should go to Google, because I’d never have found you without them.
Thanks again for your generousity (and clear instructions!)
