Nancy Prince
Lecture: So What is Thread Painting?
|
Program
You won’t want to miss this opportunity to learn from award-winning quilt artist Nancy Prince as she shares the magic of thread painting. A unique form of free-motion machine embroidery, thread painting allows quilters to add artistic flair and stunning detail to their quilts and fabric projects. With Nancy’s approachable, anyone-can-do-it techniques, you'll be inspired to explore new creative possibilities using thread as "paint" on a fabric "canvas."
Nancy’s quilts have earned top honors, including awards from the International Quilt Festival and Mancuso's Quilt World. She is the author of Simple Thread Painting and Thread Painting with Style, and has been featured on shows such as Simply Quilts and The Quilt Show. Known for her upbeat teaching style, Nancy breaks down thread painting into simple steps, making it accessible for everyone. Join this lecture to discover how to bring your quilting projects to life in a whole new way.

The Flying Geese Quilt Guild brings together a vibrant community of quilters through monthly meetings and a variety of activities. These gatherings feature quilt-related programs presented by talented members, locally recognized fiber artists, and nationally and internationally acclaimed speakers; including quilters, designers, and textile artists.
Every month, our guild members delight us with a spectacular Show and Tell, offering a glimpse into the creativity within our community and a preview of the stunning quilts featured in our biennial quilt show. Before the meeting and during breaks, members can socialize, sign up for workshops, and enter opportunity drawings for small wall hangings and door prizes.
Between meetings, the guild offers a variety of activities, including hands-on workshops, philanthropy sewing days, and small friendship quilt group gatherings.
Founded in 1985 by 30 dedicated quilters, the quilt guild has grown to approximately 200 members in 40 years. Our mission is to promote and educate members and the public in creative quilting and fiber arts, preserve the heritage of quilt making, and encourage quilt-related activities.
Guild membership offers access to workshops led by expert speakers, friendship groups, philanthropy sewing days, and community education projects. Members also enjoy special events such as our biennial quilt show, quilt auction, and retreats.
