Candace loves to design and make quilts. Working with color relationships is her favorite thing. She enjoys studying motifs from other cultures to get ideas for her work and gets many design ideas from nature, paintings, and other artistic mediums, as well as vintage quilts, and other textiles.

Candace has a bachelor's degree in art; and has been weaving for 35 years; both of which she believes, have had a big influence in the way she uses color and pattern in her quilt designs.

In this presentation, "Inspiration", Candace will show 20 large quilts, mostly bed sized. She will share how she got the idea to make each one and why she made certain design decisions; along with the strategies she used throughout her process to stay organized, get things finished, and have fun while doing it. 

Candace hopes to help you see the world around you with fresh eyes, and get inspired by so much more than just other quilts.
