Alexander Black House & Cultural Center presents the workshop "Art to Mail: Make Your Own Quilted Postcards" with Paula Golden on Thursday, March 22, 2018 offered at 3:00 pm and again at 5:30 pm. Join us for a fun workshop where you will create a small "art" quilt suitable for mailing, framing, or hanging. The possibilities are endless - it will be hard to stop at one! All supplies will be provided for this 1 and 1/2 hour workshop. You will learn how to design using pre-printed fabrics, how to use fusible adhesive, and what the US Postal Service regulations are if you'd like to mail these small treasures to a friend! The workshop will be lead by local artist and quilter Paula Golden. Selected as “2001 Teacher of the Year” by The Professional Quilter Magazine, Paula has been quilting since the early 1970s and teaching for over twenty years, including the International Quilt Festival, Houston. Her quilts, patterns and articles have been published in various magazines and books. Paula is past-president of the Board of Directors, Virginia Quilt Museum and co-author of the book Quilts of Virginia: Birth of America through the Eye of a Needle.
