Classes/Trunk Show
You bring a smiling face and a willing spirit. And I will bring my love for wool applique to you.
Whether you call them trunk shows, lectures, or guild programs, they’re all about quilts, inspiration, and entertainment. I’d love to visit your group to share my quilts and what I’ve learned. Every quilt project has something to teach us. I will share approximately 12 bed-size wool appliqué quilts, the things that went right and those that were not so great.
In this one-hour Lecture/Trunk Show, you will hear about my proudest achievements and challenges. I hope to inspire you or encourage you to try new techniques. Stay until the end of the Trunk Show so you can see the quilts up close and ask questions.
I charge $300 for a 1-hour trunk show, which includes a 45-minute presentation and a Q&A period.
I will bring with me items for purchase, including patterns, kits, and threads.
