Weaving Workshops

Quilting Workshops are a place for participants to gain new insight into the wonderful art of quilting.

 

My quilting workshops are design-oriented and focus on the individual: participants do not all make the same quilt!  In all
of my workshops, each participant receives one-on-one attention to develop and enhance their personal knowledge and skill-set.  I work with each student to help them expand their own creative abilities and push the boundaries of what they know about quilting,  Students will find that each workshop is a unique learning experience.

 

Room requirements:
Quilting workshops can be held in any room that has plenty of light and provides each student with a flat surface to work on.  Each student will need a chair, and table space that is equivalent to the size of a card table.  Additionally, there should be electrical outlets for each student’s sewing machine, and sufficient electrical outlets for each student to be able to iron.  An ironing station is recommended: 1 station/4 students.

Applique Flowers and Leaves
Applique is a wonderful way to create and enhance a quilt.  In this workshop students will explore the delights of using applique as a basis for contemporary quilts.  This workshop has been designed for quilters with some quilting experience

 

Students will learn to:

  • Design and expland simple motifs

  • Use color to enhance an applique design

  • Embellish an applique design with ribbon, yarn, and beads

  • We will explore 3 different ways to applique motifs:  Needle Turn Applique, Raw Edge Machine Applique, and Turned Edge Machine Applique

 

Workshop Requirements: Each workshop is planned around a 2-day time-frame, but please note that these times are very flexible. Shorter workshops will give students an overview of the possibilities presented by the topic. Longer workshops will allow students to design their own quilts using the techniques explored.   Ironing stations (1 for every 3 quilters), and adequate table space for each quilter is a necessity.  As always, detailed information about each workshop and room requirements is available upon request.


Workshop Fees: $500/day (6-hour day), plus room (hotel/motel single occupancy), board and traveling expenses.
