Excellent Class!

I have been using Quiltster for about 6 months, but I wanted to know more.   I was concerned about how Kathy was going to fill 3 hours on the use of the Quiltster app. Kathy was extremely organized and very

Jungle Magnolia by Carmen Van Eck
What a terrific project this Jungle Magnolia was to make. I’ve been quilting for over 30 years, but this is truly the most challenging quilt I’ve ever made. I couldn’t have done it without your help. I’m so happy with

Quiltster – Zoom Class

August 21, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm CDT
$30.00

Do you love making Quiltworx quilts — but are overwhelmed at the thought of designing your own?  Getting a headache trying to imagine how it might look if you swap this color or that color and then understanding how to integrate your choices with your pattern?  Calculating how much fabric to buy!  It’s totally overwhelming!!!

Let’s change that!

Join me in this 3 hour Zoom Class where you will learn how to choose your pattern, add your own fabrics or choose from Judy’s palettes, place your colors into your quilt, print the necessary documentation or even use the Marketplace to buy your fabrics and design YOUR quilt!  QUILTSTER is an amazing tool and you’ll have fun designing your quilts and realizing how easy it can be to point-and-click your way to your own personal Quiltworx Quilt!  From standard Quiltworx patterns to creating your own MIXER — you’ll be ready to play (and play and play some more) on Quiltster.  You do NOT need to be a highly-skilled computer user — the software is very user friendly and you’ll be a pro in no time at all.

You can join the class and just watch — but I strongly encourage you to register for Quiltster for yourself  so you can work in your own account.  Sign up for just 1 month to get you started and to be able to follow along in class “hands on…”  – the best way to learn.  You can choose to continue your subscription having fun playing with Quiltster Color and Quilt design.  Love it?  You can save money by purchasing their annual subscription  ( Note: to have access to the cloud-based Quiltster program, you need to subscribe directly with Quiltworx / Quiltster.   Again it’s a month to month subscription, you can drop any time,  with a discount for a year long subscription.  https://www.quiltster.com/subscribe )

Quiltster is cloud based and you can participate on your computer, tablet or smart phone.  For class, you may want to consider using 2 devices — one for Zoom to see what I’m doing and hear what I’m saying — and the larger screened device with Quiltster so you can work at full screen capacity.  If you are using a computer — you may want a good old-fashioned mouse to make placing your fabrics a little easier — not necessary – but helpful.  Chrome is the preferred browser — so if you are on a tablet with Safari as your sole browser — you may want to install Chrome.  It is free.

Want to learn more?  We offered this class previously and it received rave reviews.  Learn how to work from your stash, design your own unique Mixers, create “rainbow” quilts and so much more!!

Organizer

Great class, Can’t wait to take another!

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

Hands down the best Quiltworx class I have ever taken!

For the first time in over 9 years I finally know what to do and how to read Quiltworx pattterns!  I owe it all to Kathy Groves and her BobKat Quilts zoom classes. I love the fact that if I

What a Great Class!

5 Stars on everything! She provided superb verbal descriptions of what we needed to do.  Then she was calm, consistent and helpful as we worked through the process.  I  really felt supported. It was just a great class!
