Awesome teacher… No Travel Required!
I very much appreciated this class. It is so nice not to have to travel anywhere for instruction. Kathy is very knowledgeable . She is willing to take the time to help you . I highly recommend taking her class.
Great foundation for foundation paper piecing!
Quiltwork 101 On-Demand helped me avoid abandoning my project!
I’m a QW newbie I was having problems understanding the instructor and her instructions in the class I was taking. I was ready to give up!  Your simple and clear instructions helped me understand the other instructor’s directions!  I would definitely recommend this class to others.
Your video-on-demand, Quiltworx 101 class helped me avoid abandoning my project!
I hope to take your “Quiltster Hands-On” on-demand class soon.
Thank You!

Carnival Flower – Zoom Class – Register Now!
We had a great intro class on Jan 21, but you can still join – Register today, you can watch the recorded classes and be ready for our next class!
NOTE: it’s not too late to join us! While we may have held a class or two — they are fully recorded and the schedule gives you lots of time to “catch up”. Many students didn’t even receive their fabric kits until late February! I’m always available for questions… so if you are on the fence thinking “maybe it’s too late — NOPE! Join us! Â
***********************************************************************************************************************************************************
The two quilts – Wall (80″ x 80″) and the Queen (99″ x 99″) include all of the techniques that make Quiltworx special! From their newprint Template Layout Sheets for fabric prep, to ALL of the sewing foundations — not to mention their detailed and graphics intensive written instructions which make their quilts do-able by everyone — even confident beginners!
The Zoom Series (like all of my classes) will be recorded so you will have access to all instruction and teaching support materials for MANY months after the live class sessions conclude. And you receive my guarantee to be available for questions and support until your quilt top is finished!
The first class session will be a general introduction to the pattern and the class series. It will be my goal to help you understand all of the quilt’s components, where each of the fabrics go, how to prepare your papers, cut and organize your fabrics and much more. I’ll even provide fabric and bag labels to help you get organized.
Classes will be on ZOOM live but recordings will be available 24-48 hours after each live session. And look for the additional technique support videos!
Class #1 —Introduction session met on Saturday, January 21 – Recorded for new registrants and review.
Class #2 –Â Saturday, February 18 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM (lots of time between #1 and #2 to get organized, purchase fabrics, etc!!)
Class #3 – Saturday, March 18 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Class #4 – Saturday, April 1 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM (no foolin’ !)
Class #5 – Saturday, April 22, from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Class #6 – Saturday, May 20 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Class #7 – Saturday, June 3 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Class #8 – Saturday, July 15 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
I’ve spread things out quite a bit to allow lots of sewing time so that hopefully by the time class ends you will have your quilt nearly completed! That’s the goal but if it doesn’t work out that way — no problem! Sew as you can and the videos will be there to support you as needed.
My fee will include the pattern — DISCOUNTED approximately 15% off retail! So if you are purchasing a kit — I suggest you purchase fabric only – so you can save a few $$ on the pattern. But if you have the pattern — you can purchase just the instruction. Note: final pattern prices are higher than anticipated — so those already registered, you’re good! But I’ve had to adjust the pricing going forward. Sorry for the confusion.
Deposits are refundable up through December 15, 2022. Payment in full is due by January 10th (and must be received before your pattern will be shipped). I will invoice for balances due in Mid December – I’ll need to know your pattern size preference. Patterns will not ship until early 2023 (as soon as I can get them in from Quiltworx!)
Special Notice:Â
We are also offering an in-person retreat in Shipshewana, Indiana April 25 – April 29 featuring Carnival Flower! Register and pay for the Carnival Flower version of the retreat by January 20 and get this zoom class free.  Click here for more informationÂ
