Class by Kathy? – Without Hesitation!

I loved the class.  I learned not to be so awed at the idea of the complex process and the many components to this quilt.  Kathy taught us to be methodical and follow the provided instructions. Kathy worked with us

One bite at a time!

Loved the Twinkle Star class sponsored by our guild. She broke it down one bite at a time. Excellent instructor and excellent at demonstrating techniques. Patient and meets you where you are in the process. Excited to try another one!

Quiltworx Wedding Star Quilts

August 11, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT
$31.50 – $189.00

A long favorite — Judy’s Wedding Star quilt patterns makes these quilts perfect for ANY quiltmaker!  Choose a small, medium or large project — the techniques are all the same!

Wedding Star Table Topper (2 rings by 2 rings) – finshes approximately 30″ x 30″

Gemstone (4 rings by 4 rings) – finishes approximately 54″ x 54″

Bali Bedrunner (2 rings by 8 rings) – finishes approximately 30″ x 104″

Bali Wedding Star (6 rings by 6 rings or larger!) – base pattern is 80″ x 80″ (purchase additional papers to make larger)

Intro class will take you through fabric requirements – -how to select and design to help you choose fabrics you’ll love — and understand how they all fit together in your quilt.  Additional classes will focus on the Arcs, Melons and CDS/CMS units and assembly!  I’ll be with you from start to finish!

Finish it with the traditional rounded edges or square it up!  It’s all up to you.   Fabric kits are also available

on my  website for the smaller quilts.

Class dates are:

  • Intro:  Friday, August 11 – 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
  • Class #2:  Friday, September 8 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
  • Class #3:  Friday, September 29 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
  • Class #4:  Friday, October 20 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM

 

Use Quiltworx Strip Sets or custom color your own.  I can help you out with both options!  It’s time you checked a Double Wedding Ring quilt off your Quilter’s Bucket List — and this is the perfect way to do that!  These patterns are perfect for quiltmakers of all levels — the hardest part is organizing your colors!  Foundation paper piecing will tame those curves and you’ll be amazed at how quickly you master them.  I’ll even point you in the right direction for adding the binding on the scalloped edge!

I hope you’ll join me!

NOTE:  If you want to make your quilt larger than the main pattern (80″ x 80″) you will need to order additional papers.  One package will increase the size of the original 80 x 80 inch Bali Wedding Star to 92 x 92 inches. Two packages will increase the size to 104 x 104 inches. Three packages will increase the size to 104 x 116 inches. Four packages will increase the size to 116 x 116 inches.

Kathy to the Rescue!

Never shy of a quilting challenge, I purchased a kit and began working on my first Judy Niemeyer quilt, Dinner Plate Dahlia. Everything went smoothly except for one small unit mid-pattern that I could not get my head around. While

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!
