Designing for Stitch - Talk by Pauline Barnes, Friday 2nd October

Pauline explains in this talk that much of her inspiration comes from the architecture and culture of places she has visited - Peru, Italy, Thailand, Mexico and Egypt, among others - and more recently, abstract themes, such as secrecy and concealment, calligraphy and rain.

Pauline often uses geometric shapes and patterns, and usually plans her quilts on graph paper after a few minimal line drawings.  She makes lots of samples to find the best way to interpret a motif or pattern, and so creative thinking takes over and the finished quilt is often quite different from the initial design.
