I really enjoyed our class in Shipshewana doing Zen Garden. I thought your teaching was right on. Loved all of your short cuts and tips so our projects would come out perfect. Even at home as I continue my project, I can use your tricks.
We really didn’t go thru the instruction book. I don’t know if that was a good thing or not. I certainly have had no problem following along now that I’m at home.
Lastly, I would like to know how you organize your instruction book(s). I know a lot of people use highlighters on certain instructions. How do you do it?
Again thank you for a great class. I am looking forward to seeing you again in Shipshewana for future classes.

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 thorough in her presentation! Kathy demonstrated features I had not fully used so she made the app so much more robust and usable for me! I ended up extending my Quiltster subscription to annual!
I definitely recommend Kathy for any zoom class you need to complete your Judy Neimeyer/Quiltworx projects!

Five Stars for Fundamentals of Quiltmaking!
Kathy provided a clear outline for each week. We were provided with instructions on cutting out fabric to prepare samples of the blocks and techniques that were going to be demonstrated in the upcoming that class. We were also were encouraged to message any problems we were having or questions. Her responses were always timely and offered suggestions. We all proudly displayed our finished blocks for that session. We also were provided with additional resources.
I have been quilting for a few years but still referred to myself as a beginner. After this class I can walk through that door!
I can now do partial seams, flying geese, prairie points, a true 1/4 inch seam, and curves. Plus so much more.
I highly recommend this class.

Weathered Windmill Zoom Class Series
September 9 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT
$120.00 – $175.00
While not a new Quiltworx pattern — it’s one I’ve loved since I first saw it! And now that I’m a “Texan” – -or at least a Midwesterner transplanted to Texas — this will be perfect hanging on a wall or displayed on a guest room bed. The quilt finishes at 77″ x 77″ .
Zoom Class Series will allow you to sew from the comfort of your own sewing room — at your own pace thanks to the recording of the live class sessions.
Class Dates:
Intro to Weathered Windmill: Saturday, September 9 – 10:00 AM – Noon
Class #1: October 7, 10:00 AM – 12:30
Class #2: November 4, 10:00 AM – 12:30
Class #3: December 2, 10:00 AM – 12:30
Class dates are spread out to give you lots of time to sew! By the last class, we’ll be assembling and that will go quickly!
Need help choosing your fabrics? This is a Quiltster Compatible Pattern for you to design your own or purchase a Quiltster consultation and I’ll help. Mid Summer I’ll be adding a few fabric kits to my website which will make it even easier!
I hope you’ll join me!

I enjoy Kathy’s method of teaching. It’s relaxed and free form. I can progress at my pace. Kathy is always happy and open to suggestions. She had a terrific solution to a fabric problem. I didn’t need to recreate a section or buy more fabric! I wish the workshop was four days. I felt that I was just understanding the methods of construction plus making progress when it was over! I am looking forward to her return to Shipshewana.
