NOTE: This general meeting is on a TUESDAY!
Ellen Linder
What do 750 pins, window screening, and paint have in common? They’ve all been used by Ellen Lindner in creative ways as she’s made art quilts. Join her in an amusing accounting of some of the wacky things she’s done over the years, some of them successful and some of them resulting in “rough drafts.” She’ll share with you why even the unsuccessful ones are useful and why she fearlessly embraces experimentation.
More About Ellen
A former flight instructor, Ellen didn’t try her hand at art until her forties. After learning the basics, she quickly began to experiment and over the course of years developed her own fabric collage technique. More recently, Ellen has been dyeing all her own fabric and working abstractly. She finds abstract design to be very challenging, which is exactly why she likes it.
She often participates in juried shows and has won quite a few awards throughout the country.
Now using her teaching skills at a lower altitude, she teaches online, as well as via her episodes on Quilting Arts TV (PBS) and “The Quilt Show” online. Ellen has also written two eBooks and several articles.
