Geese in Flight Placemats – Learn Paper-Piecing!

June 13, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm CDT
$35.00 – $49.95

Learn paper piecing in this single three-hour live class.  Gain the skills and confidence to tackle more complex Quiltworx wall and bed size paper pieced quilts.   In honor of Flag Day and in preparation for the 4th of July, I’ve assembled a special Red, White and Blue themed kit that will make a four placemat set!  Here’s the special offer.   Buy the kit and sign up for the class before June 1,  and I’ll include the class instruction and pattern for FREE!!  You pay only for the fabric kit w/ shipping and receive the pattern and online live Zoom class (an additional $35 value) for no additional charge

Kit includes all fabrics for the tops of your placemats as well as the binding for 4 placemats.   The geese will be red, blue and multi-color on a white background with the multi-colored fabric as your binding.

The Geese in Flight Placemats pattern is a Quiltworx/Cut Loose Press pattern and it utilizes Quiltworx Charm Elements to create fast, fun, projects and layouts aimed at both the new to paper-piecing quilter maker or those looking to venture out on their own.

In this class you’ll learn:

  • How to read a Quiltworx Pattern.
  • Trimming and preparing foundation papers and how Template Layout Sheets make fabric cutting prep a breeze!
  • The fundamentals of paper piecing.
  • A few of my favorite quiltmaking tools!
  • The wonders of Quiltworx techniques — like floating points!

In the process you’ll create four great placemats just in time for your summer festivities!

Class Schedule

This class will meet live on Sunday June 13, from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.  in your sewing room! via Zoom!  But you will have a pre-class video to watch — and a little pre-class prep-work!

This is an online class on the Zoom platform.

Because classes are on the interactive  ZOOM platform – there is no packing up. No traffic.  No lugging your machine in the rain.   No travel.  No worrying about social distancing or health risks.  You will work from your own sewing room and have all your tools set up the way you like available to you.  Unlike typical online classes where you can only watch – with ZOOM you watch, listen, ask questions AND get answers right then and there.    Unlike a typical classroom where students huddle around the instructor during demonstrations where you wrangle to get a good view – EVERYONE has the same perfect view.  I utilize multiple camera angles as well as PowerPoint and graphics to make sure you have the perfect view to see exactly what you need to see to understand what it is you need to do. From lectures – to cutting to pressing to sewing – you’ll have the perfect view every time.  All sessions are recorded so you can go back and revisit them as needed.

Kathy’s No UFO Guarantee

My  guarantee to you is that I will be available via email, phone or video chat until your top is complete!  If you get stuck or forget what you need to do — I’m here to support you and get you moving forward again.

Purchase your kit and register the for the class below.   And do it by June 1 — and save the cost of the class!

Successful Finish!

Quiltworx patterns are more than a little overwhelming when you first read the instructions. I was a little nervous thinking of tackling one on my own and came across your ZOOM class. You are a very good teacher… kind and

From “No Way” to Success and Comraderie!

This was a great experience. I would never have had the nerve to try this on my own. When I first opened the pattern I almost said no way. The only thing that kept me from backing out was knowing

Kathy was exceptional to make sure no student was left behind!

The Zoom class was a great way to teach and the cameras were positioned to really see what she was teaching. The nice thing about the recorded classes is the ability to re-watch tricky areas of the sewing. It really
