• MCL QU - Monthly Meeting and Scrap Cities with Cathy Perlmutter

  • When
    April 22, 2025
  •  
    10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
  • Location
    St. Peter's Episcopal Church 4250 N Glebe Rd, Arlington VA 22207 And via ZOOM

  Our guest speaker this month via ZOOM is Cathy Perlmutter.
  Though Cathy loved crafts as a child, she spent her career in journalism writing about health for Rodale Press.  A visit in 1991 to a quilt show inspired her to try quilting. Needless to say, she fully embraced making quilts and writing about them in her blog! Her quilts have been juried into national shows, shown in museum venues in the US and abroad, and featured in national quilt magazines.  For more information about Cathy and her quilts, check out her website: https://cathyperlmutter.com/

  Lecture: Scrap Cities 
  Cathy has made quilts inspired by the most famous US cities, including New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.  Her lecture will cover her process starting with photos of real buildings then progressing to her fun, whimsical, mostly pieced fabric versions.
