I had no idea how much I could do with Quiltster!

I just attended a fabulous Quiltster Zoom Class with Kathy of BobKat Quilts. I had no idea how much you can do with Quiltster. It was a full 4 hour class with hands on training.
Kathy explained the software so clearly. I had just signed up for Quiltster and had not used it before. I like the zoom format because now I can go back to the recording and review at my own pace. I am looking forward to coloring some quilts!
If you want to learn more about Quiltster, I highly recommend this class!

ACADIA – Quiltworx TOTM Zoom Series

ACADIA – the New QUILTWORX TECHIQUE OF THE MONTH QUILT PATTERN!
The basic pattern – Acadia – will finish at 80″ x 80″. The KING or QUEEN of ACADIA will be available as well!! (Queen of Acadia 99″ x 99″ and King of Acadia approx 118″ x 118″) “Rumor has it” that you will be able to take either your WALL or QUEEN pattern to King with an Extension set!
This looks to be such fun! Don’t you love the border piecing. Applique will be optional with this pattern — more details will be available later in the year. But the base pattern will not include the applique — so YOU can decide if you want to add it!
I can’t wait until Fall! I’ll be in Kalispell in October sewing my quilt! 
The Zoom Series will include 6 live sessions and many, many, recorded videos avaiable so you can watch (and rewatch) and sew when it is convenient for you to do so. Our live sessions will introduce the individual Pattern Groups, highlight they techniqiues you will be using, identify any potential trouble spot to be aware of and to answer any and all questions you might have. Videos will include cutting fabrics for each group as well as applique techniques.
As always — if you take my Zoom Class — I’m there for you until your top is complete — not until the series ends. And the videos will remain accessible long after the live sessions conclude.
Live Class Dates are:
Saturday, January 23 – 10:00 AM — an introduction to the pattern. No sewing — but learn all the ins and outs, the options, the papers, the groups, the fabrics and so much more. No sewing – -this is just the opportunity for you to wrap your head around the pattern and all that will be required of you as you sew your quilt.
All classes are SATURDAYS and will begin at 10:00 AM CENTRAL. Subsequent dates are:
February 13th, March 13th, April 3rd, May 15th and June 12th. After that — I’m only an email away for answers and support as needed.
Reserve your spot today with a refundable deposit. Or join me in Shipshewana April 13 – 18th for a live retreat — and have the full Zoom series included with your retreat registration!

Thank you for all your help! Not such a huge Mountain!

Kathy was great at taking it in segments and working through the process to make it not seem like such a huge mountain to climb. She incorporates some of her own ideas/techniques that make the process even easier.
You won’t regret taking a class with her!

All my Quiltster Questions Answered … And MORE!

Quiltster is a phenomenal tool.. and you made it even more useful for me in understanding the “sync” button and swapping out all fabrics from the print/fabric screen.
I wanted to let you know your approach to virtual teaching is total complete and truly well put together for your students success. Your use of PowerPoints and PDF electronic handouts all kept handy and accessible in an online folder add tremendous value to your classes.
I might add you come across very well in sharing compassionately with students of all levels of experience, keeping it fun and rewarding.
