Workshop: "Mini Mid-Mod Quilts" with David Owens Hastings (05/14/2026)

Thu, 14 May 2026 16:00:00 GMT

Workshop: Mini Mid-Mod Quilts

These charming little quilts are inspired by Mid-Century Modern design, and are a great skill-building project to learn a number of quilting techniques. We will start with a simple, modern color palette of neutral fabrics with a flash of color. Clean lines combined with simple design give each tiny composition a sophisticated feeling. Since we are working very small, this is a great project for using small scraps and bits of special fabric. Participants will learn the quilt-as-you-go method, and a PDF materials and supplies list will be emailed in advance. Hand stitching adds a sleek, linear element. Finishing techniques will be demonstrated.

Supply list: MiniMidModQuilts-SupplyList.docx

Workshop: "Free Improv Piecing" with Sarah Hibbert (06/11/2026)

Thu, 11 Jun 2026 16:00:00 GMT

Workshop: Free Improv Piecing

This workshop is a relaxed and free-flowing day of freestyle patchwork piecing. This wonderful improvisational technique lets your fabrics tell you exactly where they want to go, taking all the pressure off fabric selection. You'll learn to trust your instincts and work more intuitively, creating beautiful combinations without second-guessing yourself. The secret to achieving beautiful, harmonious results lies in choosing a colour palette with a highlight accent. It's the perfect opportunity to give new life to those fabric scraps from other projects or finally use those gorgeous pieces you've been treasuring for just the right moment.

What You'll Learn:

Improvisational piecing techniques
How to work with fabric scraps and create cohesive designs
Grid and circular abstract patchwork methods
Basic quilting techniques for finishing your piece
Professional binding methods for a polished edge
Design decision-making and trusting your creative instincts
Options for turning your piece into functional items (cushions, bags, wall art)

Workshop: "Material Matrix" with Sandra Bruce (10/15/2026)

Thu, 15 Oct 2026 16:00:00 GMT

Workshop: Material Matrix--this is a 2 day workshop on both Thursday Oct 15th and Oct 16th

My technique, "Material Matrix", is inspired by the painter, Chuck Close. It involves using a gridded photograph and interpreting each 2-inch square into fabric, using piecing to achieve the effect. My lecture, "Material Matrix and the Paths Taken", is an overview of the evolution of Material Matrix and how it works. In the workshop, in addition to the technique, I teach: what makes a good photo to use, color and value, curved-piecing, and how to grid your own photo. Everyone in the class will work on "Wake Up Cup"

Supply list: Wake Up Cup Supply list.pdf
