Paint splattered, bleach
spotted and stray threads hanging on for dear life, Julie Mainor skids in.
Unapologetically messy and precision-free she teaches the joy of quilt art. In
her workshops you are inspired to relax and let your passion for quilts and
quilting flow onto fabric and become art. Full of unconventional, common sense
ideas on taking the easy way out to make WOW quilts.
Julie has been teaching since 2001, first
developing patterns and techniques to make traditional quilts easier for
beginners and busy quilters, then gradually moving into the wonderful
world of quilted art. She specializes in discovering the creativity in
self-professed non-creative quilters and turning "I've never sewn
before." into "Oh my Goodness, look what I made!". Fun is of the highest
priority in these workshops and classes.
Julie's award winning quilts have been
displayed at colleges, museums and businesses throughout North Florida
and South Georgia. She gracefully walks the line between the quilt world
and the art world fusing the two in her own unique style, all the time
sharing with others her refreshingly easy techniques.
Seeing one of Julie's Collage Trunk Shows
is an experience you will not soon forget. Each story is illustrated by
a group of quilts, each one better than the last! You'll love this
