Definitely doing this again with Kathy.

I loved taking this class with Kathy. Having the ability to go back over the videos when I got stuck made it totally worth while. She shared so much information I was overwhelmed by the value from this class!  Not

The perfect choice for our quilt club!

I enjoyed my quilt club’s 3 session zoom class. Zoom is a good way to give quilters continued access to classes during a time of social distancing,  and the pattern Kathy chose for our group was the perfect one for

Experienced Paper-Piecer

I had already done a couple of Judy patterns, so I already knew the paper – piecing process. Nevertheless, I still really enjoyed this class.  Everything was OUTSTANDING.

Shipshewana Spring 2025 – Quiltworx Technique of the Month Retreat

June 3, 2025 - June 8, 2025

$150.00 – $724.50

Save your spot today!  In 2023 — we were over-filled.  I’m reducing the number this time so don’t miss your opportunity to visit Shipshewana in Late Spring 2025 to work on  your Quiltworx Technique of the Month Quilt!  Jungle Magnolia!! You know you’ll want to make it!  Or bring any pattern you wish to sew!

We are adding an extra day this year — so we’ll be retreating from Tuesday, June 3 (start sewing at 10:00 AM) and we will sew until Sunday afternoon (4:00 PM).  THAT IS 6 FULL DAYS OF SEWING!!!   That week is also the week of the nearby Elkhart Quilt Show — so you can sneak away one day to take in the show if you wish!  It’s about a 20 minute drive.  Not to mention a visit to Yoder Department Store, The Cotton Corner, Lolly’s,  Essenhaus Quilt Shop, Caroline’s, Zincks and more!  And don’t forget your stop at JoJo’s Pretzels or Ben’s Pretzels!  Yummy is the word of the day!

As always — I’ll start the instruction on Zoom in February — and you can join me then and get started or wait until the retreat to get going.  The full Zoom Series is included with your retreat registration!  A $300+ value!

The Zoom series is available independently as well.  You can choose RETREAT ONLY or ZOOM ONLY or you can purchase your pattern with your registration (I discount them with registration!) for either the retreat or the Zoom Series.  Since the pattern was released — Certified Shops have been offering KITS — which can include fabric only or fabric with pattern – make sure you don’t purchase 2 patterns!   I can also help you custom design your own colorway using Quiltster if you want your own unique quilt.  Or join me and learn how to use Quiltster to design your own!

Deposit will be refundable through January 31st, 2025 less a $7.50 processing.   Reserve your hotel rooms independently at The Farmstead Inn or plan to stay at the nearby campground or check out some of the nearby VRBO / B&B options.  There are other hotels a little less pricey you may want to check out.  You do NOT need to stay at the hotel to participate in the Retreat.

I hope you’ll consider joining me.  With the Zoom support added — this is a GREAT value — 6 days of sewing and the full Zoom Series (and my support from start to finish regardless of your timeline).

Pay your registration in full by 12/31/2024 and use coupon code earlybird to save $75.00.

Courage to Try!

I took a class from Kathy last year.   It was the Bali Wedding Star.  I made it for my daughter and son in law. On a lark I entered it in our local guilds quilt show. I won viewers choice

Great Experience

I did the Harboured Lighthouse quilt as a zoom class with Kathy. It was easy to follow along during the class. If I missed anything or wanted to recheck part it’s easy to watch the class again. Kathy is always
