January General Meeting
Pat Essex
Quilt maker & quilt and
fabric historian
Wednesday, January 21, 2026
1:30 p.m. (doors open at 1:00)
Quilting: Traditional Meets Modern
Please join us on January 21st, when quilt maker and quilt and fabric historian Pat Essex shares how a family connection, her aunt, sparked a new and expanded enthusiasm for quilting, which she has pursued with vigor since retiring from a professorship in Accounting and Management Information Systems at Bowling Green State University in northwest Ohio. Pat has been an active quilter since the 1980s, but viewing old and tattered family quilts sparked interest in a new domain of learning. Pat and her VILLAGE QUILTER colleagues are exploring new trends and enjoying two different, yet sometimes similar, quilt styles.
This event is free to all WoF members
Guests are invited and asked to pay $5.00 at the door (all
proceeds benefit our Wonderful Options grants program).
