Canvas-Mounted Mini-Quilts

Interested in learning a new way to present your textile artwork to the world? Do you want to have non-quilters take your mini-quilts more seriously? In this workshop, I’ll walk you through the steps I take to mount my mini-quilts onto a pre-made canvas frame.

Getting Started with Procreate for Quilt Design

Curious about using technology to design your next project? Do you have a work-in-progress, and you’re not sure where to go next? In this class, I’ll demonstrate how I use Procreate on my iPad to create whimsical designs, audition color palettes, and get myself out of design jams. You don’t need to be “good” at drawing to make great designs! No iPad or Procreate required for the class, though bring yours to follow along if you have one!
