Gwen Receveur
Our 2016 QDO Featured Quilter
My love of quilting began in 1980, and I ventured into my first quilting class at the "old" New Albany Library. My desire to learn everything about quilting also took me to classes at Baers and the Cotton Patch. I began frequenting The Quilt Corner in Pekin, Indiana, where I met Lora Nale. Lora quickly became a mentor and friend. Her knowledge and assistance was invaluable as I grew in my quilting precision. Lora sold her shop to The Quilting Bee in Georgetown/
Edwardsville, Indiana. I now work and play at The Quilting Bee, and I have met some of the most wonderful people who visit the shop.
In 2014, I entered two quilts in The Bluegrass Quilt Festival and received two third place ribbons. In 2015, I won my division and the overall Best of Show. What a wonderful surprise and Beginner's Luck !!
