Mary Pal

For years I have admired the quilts made by Mary Pal. I have tried to get into her classes at CQA in Ontario and even her classes in Haliburton. She is always booked up. Plus, it was quite expensive to fly to Ontario just to take her class. So, I decided to email her and invite ger to come to Calgary. And, what do you know? She did.

Mary came for the last week in May 2019. She came for a five day workshop and she gave an amazing Trunk Show. We were so pleased to have her here.

I started several quilts in her class. I finally finished them a year late.

I also started two large portraits, one of my husband, Dale, and his father, Jim. They also took me a year to finish.

Then I did a couple of other quilts in Mary’s style:

Anyway, it was well worth the time and money. I have a new friend and a new technique under my belt. I have totally been influenced by this wonderful woman.
