Melissa Averinos' latest book, "Making Faces in Fabric," just came out and my quilt, "Listen," is on page 105!
I took a fabulous workshop with Melissa a couple years ago. Melissa won a Judge's Choice award for her quilt, "Face #1" at QuiltCon 2015 and she teaches workshops based on techniques used in this quilt. By way of teaching, she assembled the work of her workshop attendees for the Gallery section of the book.
Melissa is a talented artist and easy-going instructor. She is friendly, approachable and lots of fun in class. If you're interested in trying fabric collage, get her book and Make a Face!
