2015 Quilt Legend Georgia Bonesteel
(Show 1713) Georgia Bonesteel is known for her lap quilting technique, using a large wooden hoop and a magnifying glass, and we are included in a viewing of some of her amazing creations. Georgia is also a Master Gardener, chicken farmer, and community volunteer, who approaches all her activities with enthusiasm and endless energy. A visit to her North Carolina home is much more than just a quilting experience. Her history includes broadcasting a quilting show nearly 40 years ago on Public Television, and authoring nine books on lap quilting. She helps to maintain the gardens at the Flat Rock Playhouse, whose walls feature a quilt block that she designed. The tour includes both Georgia’s home of 45 years and the Playhouse gardens.
Visit: Tour of Georgia Bonesteel's studio, home, and gardens.
