Monthly Meetings

Saturday, January 14, 2025, 10:30 a.m.
Zoom, with Watch Party at SPU

Lynn grew up overseas; her mother made clothes for the entire family. There was always a craft project in the works! 

Her first job was in a local fabric shop, and she made all of her own clothes in high school. In the early 2000s, she visited Houston, attended the International Quilt Festival, saw art quilts for the first time, and knew that is what she wanted to do. She now explores different techniques to create her own fiber art pieces.

Lynn is the founder of Create Whimsy, a website that shares the stories of makers and inspires everyday creativity. 

In this presentation, Lynn will share her experiences and influences from her childhood, as well as her professional and artistic journey.
