See the photo of fun below! If you are interested in a class contact me here.  Wonderful students today, so much fun!  Tuesday Funny!!! One of my students was so into the quilting that she did'nt realize she stitched my BIZ card on the back of her quilt - NOW THAT is a first LOL! I just completed my virtual crayon appliqué class today with Mississauga Quilters Guild. I showed them a BONUS Trapunto technique so that they can make it 2 dimensional and more like an appliquéd motif. It was so much fun, I want to do more crayon appliqué & teaching of this method. They were a great group, we had lots of great conversation and I'm sure they found the technique easy & hopefully fun! If you are interested in getting a group together to take this class, please feel free to contact me. Scroll down to see the class description here. Photos of the virtual class are shown below.

On Saturday Nov 26 (for Region of York Quilters Guild) & today Nov 30 ( for Royal City Quilters Guild), I offered on zoom my class Quilting with Rulers For Domestic Machines. This is a pre taped, one day class where I provide guidance, answer questions, trouble shoot etc. for the entirety of the workshop. They were fun! I could not believe how creative & innovative these quilters are. Below is a picture of my studio, I sprawl out all of my ruler supplies, notions & quilting samples much like a live class, ready to bring on a total of 28 students! Thanks to all who coordinated and to those who participated! Need more info about my classes?

This class was held at Creekbank Sewing in Mount Forest. This is a beginner thread painting class where we thread painted an appliquéd sunflower on woodgrain fabric making a gorgeous art quilt. In this class, I showed participants how to machine appliqué the easy way. Threads, needles and appropriate machine techniques were discussed. This is a beginner thread painting project and after completion of this class students will be able to add thread painted motifs to their own quilted projects or make artistic home decor and expand on this technique. Special Thanks to all who attended the class! You were wonderful! Also as shown below, fabulous work!❤️ I hope to see more of your thread painted work in the future!

Enjoy your Wednesday! In case any of my followers want to know what's going on behind the scenes when there is radio silence from me. Trust me nothing is ever silent in my world! I believe life is for living & pursuing passions. Therefore behind the scenes there is always a behive of creative activity! Just a few minutes ago at 630am I was responding to Bernina Blog comments. Last evening I was working on my Bernina Q20 & a customer quilt. I was also prepping for a Thread Painting Class at Creekbank Sewing this Tuesday and reviewing my new Crumb Pieced Star In a Star Pattern (soon to be available on my website). So yes radio silence is non existent! Some photos of the "Behive" are shown below  Designing Crumb Pieced Star in a Star Pattern  On my Bernina Q20 Long Arm beautiful customer quilt with vintage appeal!
