I really enjoyed our class in Shipshewana doing Zen Garden. I thought your teaching was right on. Loved all of your short cuts and tips so our projects would come out perfect. Even at home as I continue my project, I can use your tricks.
We really didn’t go thru the instruction book. I don’t know if that was a good thing or not. I certainly have had no problem following along now that I’m at home.
Lastly, I would like to know how you organize your instruction book(s). I know a lot of people use highlighters on certain instructions. How do you do it?
Again thank you for a great class. I am looking forward to seeing you again in Shipshewana for future classes.

Kathy Groves did an exceptional job teaching me how to do paper piecing. Kathy broke down the process so i could understand the steps, was incredibly patient during the workshop, plus she offered videos of the process. I’ve been visiting my family since the workshop and am looking forward to finishing my poinsettia table topper when I get home. I had tried this twice process before and never finished my project because I was intimidated by the process and couldn’t remember any of the steps. The only suggestion I have is to add a powerpoint with the steps of the process to the lecture. Only four slides are needed. Show all the pieces cut out. Show organizing into bags. Show lining the pieces up, then show steps on the bookmark. You explained it all in the class so well, but as a novice i would have liked to see the method as part of the lecture.

Arctic Star by Quiltworx – Zoom Class
August 27, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm CDT
$40.00 – $325.00
While the original Technique of the Month Quilt – Glacier Star – has been retired BUT…
they have replaced this popular pattern with the new ARCTIC STAR PATTERN! Available in both Wall (68″ x 68″) or Queen (99″ x 99″) — it is surely going to be as popular as its predecessor!
Join me as we create this quilt through the Fall — somewhat like the original Technique of the Month. Available in Quiltster — you can color and create your own custom colorway — or also sign up for a Quiltster Consultation and I can help you design the quilt you are imagining!
Class meeting dates:
- Sunday, August 27: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM — Introduction – we will talk about the pattern, components, fabrics, papers, bags — everything you need to know to start planning your quilt!
- Saturday, September 30: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM — Session #2 — let’s get started sewing!!!
- Saturday, October 21: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM — Session #3
- Saturday, November 18: 10:0 AM – 1:00 PM — Session #4
- Saturday, December 9: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM — Session #5 — assembly will be underway! –> need to move to 12/16.
In addition to the live class sessions, all classes are recorded and remain available for 12-18 months after the final class is held. Additional support videos, documents and images are also included. And most importantly — I pledge my support to you from your first stitch until your last one! Just email me and we can trade messages, phone calls or even 1-on-1 Zoom meetings. This will be a quilt that you will have help from start to finish!

She was very patient, she didn’t ‘over-teach’. She’d let me try a new technique, but she would catch me before I made a serious mistake by asking me to explain what I was going to do next. This really helped me understand the process. She provided lots of little tips along the way… like how to remove the foundation paper without pulling out the stitches.
