Yvonne Brown's Talk at Alveva Quilters September Meeting

We were lucky at the September Alveva Meeting as we

had Yvonne Brown gives us a talk on her

trip to New Zealand for the Quilt Symposium.

She was one of the Tutors at the event.

Yvonne was the originator of

Alveva Quilters and is also our President.

She has contributed so much to

Patchwork and Quilting.

She showed us slides of her trip and showed

us some of her new work including a commission piece

based on the Sutton Hoo Helmet.

Yvonne had also brought along

several copies of her book,

'Tex-tiles and other Treasure:

Using Medieval Tiles and Stonework'.

I brought a copy and she kindly signed it

for me!

I highly recommend it if you want to

experiment with heat and soldering techniques.

Thank you Yvonne for a lovely talk,

so inspirational.

You can buy her book and see
