Guest Segment: Chris English Quilts
My guest is Chris English, a quilter and fabric/textile designer in the UK. Chris is known for utilizing recycled fabrics in his one of a kind quilts. The past several years his quilts have been shown at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, UK.
We chat about Chris's creative background in textile design leading up to his love for finding previously loved and repurposed fabrics to make gorgeous and unique quilts. Chris often mixes florals, plaids, textures with touches of bold color in his quilts. Find out what he finds and how he sources these unique fabrics and puts them together in a harmonious quilt.
Chris also shares the story of his #teambearpaw24 initiative group quilt.
