Fun instructor who teaches to all levels of skill

Just wanted to post a little note. I am very new to sewing and especially quilting. My friend, who lives in Indiana, asked me if I wanted to take a quilting class with her. So I did. Kathy was beyond fantastic. She is a true instructor who understands how not to overwhelm students who are trying to learn a new skill set. It was super fun, relaxing and I learned a lot. There were some very experienced quilters in the class who also learned a lot. I’ve already decided that I’m going to Shipshewana again next year (2025)!
Thanks for a fun week!

Leander Star Zoom Class

This beautiful wall quilt was designed by me (Kathryn Groves) via Quiltster — the Quiltworx design software. It is one of their MIXER PATTERNS — and thus will provide you with all the wonderful techniques and instructions that all Quiltworx patterns do!
The quilt finishes at 85″ x 85″. The samples were done in the Star Anise fabric line on the left and Cortez on the right. I have both a Star Anise and a Cortez fabric list readily available for shopping and labeling.
Pattern is included with your registration! If you want to color your own — email me for Quiltster information — or sign up for a Quiltster consultation. I’ve left a bit of sewing time so you’ll have all your piecing completed prior to our assembly class.
Class live meeting dates: (Classes are recorded – so if Friday mornings don’t work for you — watch them at your convenience!!) I’m always available via email, text or 1-on-1 chat if needed!!
- Friday, April 30 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM CST
- Friday, May 7 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM CST
- Friday, June 4 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM CST (We’ll be putting it together!!)

Love the Flexibility of Zoom Classes

I’m glad I signed up for this class on Zoom. I work full time and may not be able to participate in all the live sessions. The videos are great so I can work at my own pace!
Outstanding Retreat!

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!
