A statement from SAQA:
SAQA Indiana is excited to have the opportunity to showcase our art in concurrence with The Quilters Hall of Fame annual celebration and induction of Katie Pasquini Masopust, a longtime SAQA member and former president.
Some of us lean towards realistic images while others love the abstract. We create the base of our art using methods like piecing, appliqué, hand dyed fabric, paint on fabric, and manipulated photos printed on fabric. Then we embellish with free motion quilting, yarn, beads, sequins, and lace. Each piece is a labor of love and we hope you enjoy!
