Lectures
Scrap Quilts -
Here is a wonderful look at lots of beautiful scrap quilts. I love
the art of mixing scarps together and stitching them into lovely treasured
quilts. How to sort, store and then stitch, what some people consider trash,
into your own creations. And yes, I have dug fabric out of the garbage
cans at the end of a class!
Common Threads - A Journey from Traditional to Contemporary-
This lecture and trunk show illustrates the relationship between traditional,
innovative, and contemporary quilts. Trace familiar blocks, such
as the log cabin quilt, into a new look, and see how the construction of
a simple block can lead to more complicated quilts. All
levels of quilters will find this interesting and informative.
Quilting Designs-
Can't decide how to quilt your pieced top? In this lecture
I will discuss how to decide what quilting designs will best enhance your
quilt. Whether you prefer hand or machine quilting, this a
very important part of your quilt. Quilt tops provided by the
audience will demonstrate the process of choosing designs.
Focus on Color-
Quilters make color decisions every time the purchase fabric, or piece
a quilt top. Forget about memorizing technical terms, this
lecture focuses on developing your own sense of color usage. Emphasis
will be on practical and fun methods to make the color in your work stand
out.
