Private worshops

I had many questions about the private workshops I do. I have answered those who wanted to schedule privately, but I thought I'd answer the general questions here.

I do private classes/workshops on several topics: Various topics on longarm quilting; machine quilting in general (including domestic machine); machine applique; art quilting; fabric dyeing and painting( don't confuse my dyeing with Vicki's...it's a whole different animal).  I do individual classes; shared classes (2 friends splitting the time and cost); small groups; and a limited number of lecture/trunk shows.  I also offer online video-based classes at MQR, and I teach at MQS in May each year.

Quite few of you have asked for an example of a private, individual class (one student only)... this is one of the many I offer.  All of the private one on one classes are tailored to meet the needs of that individual. Below is one example.

Taught in my home studio...."Learning the Dance".... A 6 hour workshop geared to one who has been quilting for a while, but wants to expand their skills and confidence.  We cover optimizing your machine and how to choose and use the tools needed.  Three small quilt tops are provided for the student to execute specific skills with my guidance, that are necessary for  quilting at the next level, whatever that might be for them.  Everything needed for the class and lunch is provided.

An example of the quilt tops used in the class...







These three tops,one  pieced,one wholecloth, and one appliqué,  provide ample opportunity to cover a wide variety of skills.They are all 18" square when complete and trimmed.  And the student has three small quilts when they're done to take home with them that could be wall hangings or pillows.

The class also includes a workbook complete with practice pages specific to the class taken.



I hope that answers the general questions.  For specific questions and pricing  you can contact me here.
