Some Beautiful Finishes From Our October Bowl-Making Class

Brooklyn Quilters Guild member Kirsten Fisher recently taught a bowl-making class for Guild members on Zoom and the results were beautiful. The students made a wide variety of elegant 15-inch bowls. Kirsten taught the triangle method that she developed through trial and error over the years. This method and others are described in her new book, Modern Fabric Art Bowls, scheduled to be available in February. It is available for pre-order on Barnes & Noble and on Amazon.
