I would fly to Texas to take another class from her!
Kathy is an amazing instructor! Don’t miss an opportunity to learn from one of the best! I’ve taken two of her classes. I live in Indiana, but I would fly to Texas to take another class from her!
Very thorough and knowledgeable teacher!
Here we are in a time when we can’t meet in person and there is a learning curve for everyone, but Kathy took it on and was able to succeed. I know she will see everyone through in completing their various projects. Kathy obviously is very comfortable teaching any class. Suggestions for Zoom would be to pre-record just the instructions for the day, and then take questions and open up for sewing, where appropriate. I really appreciate the instructions in the separate videos that were given after the fact. I would pay for classes that aren’t interactive, but are just the recordings. I’m sure I will take part in future classes.
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!

Shipshewana Spring 2025 – Quiltworx Technique of the Month Retreat
June 3 - June 8
$150.00 – $724.50
Sorry we are at capacity for Spring 2025!
Stay tuned we’re working a on another Shipshewana Retreat, October 7 – 12, 2005! Check back soon!
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 4% processing (mostly what is withheld by the payment processor.) 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).

Thank you Kathy…
Thank you for help. I loved the card you gave us for the steps on paper piecing. Quiltworx University was a large class, so I really appreciated all the times you came to my station to offer help and advice.
Great patience with newer quilters
