April 23, 2026 - Julie Faulkner - Quiltworx Trunk Show

From Julie's website: Julie has been quilting since she was about five when her grandmother taught her how to English Paper Piece. Her first quilt was made by hand using a hexagon template made by her grandfather which she drew round onto cereal packets and a slightly larger one for the fabric. It was a slow process but made with many memorable hours at her grandparents' house in England. Julie loves all needle crafts and has spent many hours doing sewing, knitting, crochet, cross-stitch and needlepoint.
