Full title—Lecture—My Quilting Odyssey—A 50 Year Career of Stitching Adventures. Judith Baker Montano's career coincides with the growth and success of the International Quilt Festival, from being a first-time instructor 50 years ago to becoming a festival heritage teacher today. In a tribute to the 50^th anniversary of the International Quilt Festival, she takes the audience through her journey with an amusing and informative collection of colorful artwork, memories, and stories that coincide with her progression from Crazy Quilting, embellishments, and art-to-wear to mixed-medium art pieces. Baker Montano attributes many of her successful years of teaching to the support of the festival founders and amazing staff. www.judithbakermontano.com
