Kristie Naranjo
Lecture - Scrappy Appliqué

Kristie Naranjo has had a lifelong love of needle and thread, exploring everything from garment sewing to embroidery, cross-stitch, and crochet from the time she was eight years old. In her forties, a visit to her sister-in-law’s quilt studio rekindled her passion for sewing and opened the door to quilting — a spark that quickly grew into a calling. Today, Kristie is a Certified Instructor for Scrappy Appliqué and teaches at guilds, quilt shops, and to anyone eager to learn fresh, creative techniques.

In this lively and colorful lecture, Kristie introduces the Scrappy Appliqué method, a crowd-pleasing approach that is simple, fun, and accessible for all skill levels.

Kristie will walk attendees through the basics of this raw-edge, collage-style appliqué technique and share a trunk show filled with inspiring examples. Members will leave excited to try their own versions and see how this playful method can transform scraps into striking, one-of-a-kind works of art.

The Flying Geese Quilt Guild brings together a vibrant community of quilters through monthly meetings and a variety of activities. These gatherings feature quilt-related programs presented by talented members, locally recognized fiber artists, and nationally and internationally acclaimed speakers; including quilters, designers, and textile artists.
Every month, our guild members delight us with a spectacular Show and Tell, offering a glimpse into the creativity within our community and a preview of the stunning quilts featured in our biennial quilt show. Before the meeting and during breaks, members can socialize, sign up for workshops, and enter opportunity drawings for small wall hangings and door prizes.
Between meetings, the guild offers a variety of activities, including hands-on workshops, philanthropy sewing days, and small friendship quilt group gatherings.
Founded in 1985 by 30 dedicated quilters, the quilt guild has grown to approximately 200 members in 40 years. Our mission is to promote and educate members and the public in creative quilting and fiber arts, preserve the heritage of quilt making, and encourage quilt-related activities.
Guild membership offers access to workshops led by expert speakers, friendship groups, philanthropy sewing days, and community education projects. Members also enjoy special events such as our biennial quilt show, quilt auction, and retreats.
