LA CONNER, WA  June in La Conner is glorious with gorgeous gardens blooming around the historic wooden homes. It was also a perfect time for a quilting workshop—with long days in the picturesque town. 
La Conner, June 2024Our week included days filled with pattern making and ¼ inch seams to master Inserted Curves. Plus lively dinners, a visit to Sylvia Pippen’s Studio to see quilts by Kitty Pippen, and a tour of the local quilt museum.

Most importantly, the participants experienced the elation of pure creativity with their Centrum Quilt projects.
