Pull Up a Chair: Stories Stitched One Quilt at a Time

​

Join sisters Becky Malarski and Tracey Stinger for a heartfelt and entertaining trunk show that celebrates the stories behind the quilts we create—and the friendships that make them even more meaningful.

 

Rather than focusing on techniques or individual tools, this presentation takes you on a journey through a collection of quilts, each with its own story of inspiration, creativity, perseverance, and connection. Along the way, Becky and Tracey share humorous behind-the-scenes moments, lessons learned, and the adventures that quilting has brought into their lives.

 

Their unique blend of education, storytelling, and sisterly banter creates an engaging presentation that will resonate with quilters of every skill level. Attendees will laugh, be inspired, and leave with fresh ideas for their own quilting journey.

 

Attendees will enjoy:

• A beautifully curated trunk show featuring a variety of original quilt designs.

• The stories and inspiration behind each project. Practical tips for building confidence and enjoying the creative process.

• A glimpse into the friendships and adventures that quilting makes possible.

• Plenty of laughter, encouragement, and audience interaction.

 

Whether you're a brand-new quilter or have been stitching for decades, this presentation is a reminder that quilting is about so much more than fabric and thread—it's about the memories we create, the people we meet, and the stories we stitch together.
