Lectures

Confessions of a ScrapManiac

about an hour

Slide lecture with trunk show of scrap quilts

We all have scrap bags, or boxes, or barrels full of bits and pieces. But what are we doing with these fabrics? You'll see how I purchase fabrics, prepare my scraps so they are ready to use when I want to make a scrap quilt, and choose good designs. We'll also explore the elements of a good scrap quilt and some of the things to avoid. 

Borders-The Built-In Way

about 1 hour

Slide lecture with trunk show of Built-In Border Quilts

Wouldn't you love to be able to transform the complex construction of traditional pieced borders into an easier block method?  Trace the development of the technique from it's early beginnings; see how to make more than a dozen different borders painlessly and easily -- the built-in way. 

Sensational Settings (currently unavailable -- being revised)

about 1 hour

Slide lecture with trunk show

You've won the block of the month blocks and decided to showcase them in a really special setting. Explore a dozen or more different ways to put your blocks together and see how easily these settings are to achieve. Lots of inspiration with slides of both old and new quilts.
