2014: Trunk Show
What better
way to start the New Year than with a little inspiration? Sharon Galna from Ajax will share her love of
quilting and design in a presentation called “ Inspiration and Design”. Sharon
was
taught to sew at the age of 11 by her mother. She started out by making simple
garments and continued with her love of sewing throughout public and high
school by making her own clothes. She took that love of sewing to the
next level by studying fashion design at college. It was while in college in
1983 that she made her first quilt to celebrate her grandparents’
50th wedding anniversary and was immediately hooked.
She
has had pieces juried into the Grand National Quilt Exhibition (2006, 2007,
2010). Her work has also been shown at
the Joseph Schneider Haus, the Oshawa Fibre Arts Show, the Visual Arts Centre
of Clarington and the Mclean Community Centre, Ajax.
Sounds like this will be a great meeting. Hope to see you all there.
