Lecture/Trunk Show: How Do I Quilt It?

Click here for current pricing and contract information

The secret to successful quilting is in the planning and preparation. I’ll guide you through the steps I take to make each quilting experience fun and stress free. Once you see my methods, you’ll feel empowered to quilt your own quilts! Learn how I baste my quilts, make a quilting plan, choose thread colors, divide and conquer each task, and apply rich texture with little to no marking of the quilt. I’m also excited to share my quilts and answer any questions you may have.

My classes are geared towards comfortable beginners to intermediate students who have a good working knowledge of their own sewing machines.
