SUMMARY:Lecture: Janice Schindeler
DESCRIPTION:Inspirational Sources / Take a Look Around!We will explore where inspiration comes from. Shapes and sizes and color combos with a few funny stories along the way and numerous quilts to be shared. \n\n\n\nBIOJanice SchindelerSecond only to her love for her small family\, quilting and food are Janice’s two passions. She has worked as a food journalist\, restaurant critic\, waitress and a cook. She owned a catering company and recently retired from her pimento cheese farmers market business. She was once crowned Apple Pie Baking Princess\, was called the Hamburger Queen\, and is known around town as the Pimento Cheese Goddess. She has been quilting since 1995. Always a bit out of the box\, Janice learned the American tradition of quilting while living in Australia. \n\n\n\nThen a move to the UK afforded her the opportunity to take the esteemed City & Guilds quilting course\, where classic fundamental techniques were emphasized. With her roots in traditional quilting\, Janice quickly applied the classic techniques to her own creations. She went off in two – maybe three tangents – food\, story and felted wool applique quilts. Her wool and embellished quilt entitled “Home” earned a Ribbon of Merit for Surface Design and Embellishments from the National Quilt Association. \n\n\n\nShe has lectured and taught wool applique and embellishments and ice dyeing for the past 5 years. In 2019 she attended the National Quilting Symposium in Auckland\, New Zealand where she took a 6-day Indigo dyeing class from Jane Callander. Always anxious to learn\, most recently Janice enrolled in a 5-month modern quilting class with Maria Shell.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Fun with Fabric

Come alone\, or bring a child for a fun day creating portraits and memories. \n\n\n\nCome alone or bring a child of any age. It’s a great way to have fun with younger generations while introducing them to playing with fabric! \n\n\n\nSupply List \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$25 Members / $35 Non-members \n\n\n\nTo sign up\, contact Melinda Stanton at melstan3@yahoo.com

SUMMARY:Lecture: Susan Cornell
DESCRIPTION:What is an Art Quilt anyway? \n\n\n\nWe all hear the term\, but do we all have the same idea of what an “art quilt” is? Is it a relatively new thing? Are there better terms? Do you have to be a traditional artist to make one? Where can we see some? These are some of the questions that will be covered in this talk\, with a show-and-tell of quilts and images to help us decide on answers.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Linda Neal
DESCRIPTION:Lecture – Trunk Show \n\n\n\nLinda will share some of her favorite quilts- primarily applique with added embellishment- from years of quilting. When describing her quilts she often says “I don’t do easy\,” and “the original pattern had… but I did…” She’s won awards at AQS Paducah and Houston IQA\, as well as her local Quilt Plano and Dallas Quilt Show\, and other National shows.  \n\n\n\nhttp://www.quiltagiousquarters.com/linda-neal-bio.htm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBioLinda Neal is an award- winning quilter who lives in McKinney\, Texas with her husband Robert. She began quilting 17 years ago after retiring from pediatric/neo-natal nursing. She has won awards from: AQS Paducah and Phoenix\, Houston IQA\, Pacific International Quilt Festival\, Shipshewana Quilt Festival\, Quilt Odyssey\, Road to California\, Quilt Plano\, and the Dallas Quilt Show. \n\n\n\nLinda’s winning quilts are primarily applique with added embellishment. She often makes changes to the published pattern to add personalization and visual impact. Her goal with each quilt is to make each block in the quilt her favorite. She challenges viewers to search for the added embellishment and detail in each block. Her motto “I can’t do easy\,” shows in every quilt. \n\n\n\nLinda enjoys sharing her applique knowledge with students. Her class includes lots of hands-on demonstrations and examples. Even the most advanced students will learn some new tricks! Linda is able to teach beginners how to applique\, assist with a project in process\, or help you through an applique problem.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Let’s be Friends
DESCRIPTION:Bring a smile\, a kind word\, a happy face and you will enjoy the day much more! Cameras are welcome in all my classes. Show and tell of other projects done in my classes are always a treat. Basic supplies that make you happy during class are things you can bring. If you like a chair\, bring it\, but if you can’t\, then understand the one you get to use in class is one you didn’t have to lug. This goes for lots of other things\, too. \n\n\n\nMysteries are so much fun\, but so is learning how color works and how different units go together. This New class will have all that! \n\n\n\nEach student brings 2 1/2″ strips that will be exchanged. With a group of 20 or more there will be SO much to work with!Depending on skill level and how fast you sew\, you could actually finish a top in class. Amazing what can happen in a day. \n\n\n\nUsing only Batik fabric\, we will start with a strip exchange. This will give us a lot of different fabrics/colors to work with. This is my example of a saturated batik fabric. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Batik fabrics are mostly sold at Quilt shops. They are dyed and most of them have no wrong side. When purchasing this fabric for class\, remember that you will also be getting fabrics from others and it would be nice if each of you gave your favorite color! \n\n\n\nSupply list \n\n\n\nMatruler to use with rotary cutterrotary cutter with a new bladetriangle tool such as Easy Angle (available for purchase in class if you don’t have it)Tri-Rec tool (available for purchase in class if you don’t have it)sewing machine with all the cordsseam ripper1/4″ footsnips to cut threadgray or other neutral color threadmost of all a Happy Face!2 yards of (1) Batik fabric FABRIC A2 yards of a saturated color Batik FABRIC B 3 yards of background fabric.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Charlotte Angotti
DESCRIPTION:Lecture \n\n\n\nWhy aren’t you making more quilts? I know you have the fabric! \n\n\n\nThis lecture is humorous\, light\, yet full of information and real quilts.  No slides or Powerpoint – the lights are up and the ideas are flowing.  This is a great way to get an overview of what quilting is all about.  Questions are always welcome.  Bring friends\, cameras\, and be ready to laugh! \n\n\n\nhttps://www.quiltmakersstudio.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio \n\n\n\nWhile shopping with her mother in 1977\, (really\, that long ago!)\, Charlotte wandered into a quilt shop and everything changed from there. Educated in fine arts\, speech and drama\, she brings a variety of talents to the class and in a most humorous way. \n\n\n\nShe has been teaching quilt making since 1978 because someone asked Charlotte to teach her. Her first quilt was sold right after making it. She has sold many since. In 1981 Charlotte opened a quilt shop\, Quilt Works\, in Virginia Beach\, VA. She sold the shop in 1999. \n\n\n\nShe has been teaching nationally/internationally since 1991 and now lives in the Lafayette\, LA area\, moving there in 2016. \n\n\n\nQuilt Maker’s Studio was started when Charlotte realized there were a few left-over kits now and then. The ‘orphan’ kits are sometimes available on the website\, but more often offered for sale in other classes as she travels. The kits are so popular it is difficult to get them online before they are sold! The kits are laser cut and go together perfectly. They make sewing a quilt simply as good as it gets. \n\n\n\nIt has been said many times\, if you hear laughter coming from a room\, there is a good chance Charlotte Is in there. Charlotte is known for humor\, her way with color and fabric\, her pre-cut kits\, and her book\, Surprise Yourself! Charlotte is a fun person to have on a faculty or as a teacher coming to your guild. She believes her hobby is quiltmaking and her job is teaching others to enjoy it as much as she does.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Beloved
DESCRIPTION:Instructions from Betsy: \n\n\n\nPick a Jelly Roll of your choice\, coordinating setting fabrics\, and border. This is the easiest way to go.I have had students try to use fat quarters and it doesn’t work as well.But\, if students want to cut 40 strips\, they should be 2 1/2” selvage to selvage.They will enjoy my method for construction using jelly roll or 2 1/2” x WOF strips.Patterns can be purchased from me\, or if they find them in shops.DO NOT cut strips in half as stated in pattern. Keep strips long. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$25 Members / $35 Non-members \n\n\n\nTo sign up\, contact Melinda Stanton at melstan3@yahoo.com

SUMMARY:Lecture: Kelly Young
DESCRIPTION:Lecture – “Make Your Scraps Work with Structured Improvisation” \n\n\n\nThis trunk show includes all quilts from Kelly’s first two books “Scrappy Improv Quilting” and “Stash Statement”\, as well as a few others\, and she’ll show us just how easy it is to use our own scraps to create quilts with amazing texture and interest. \n\n\n\nhttp://www.myquiltinfatuation.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBioKelly Young is a wife to an awesome husband and quilt-holder extraordinaire\, mom to an 18 year old son\, and a former elementary school teacher. She’s from Baton Rouge\, graduated from LSU\, and has a minor in vocal performance! Her family currently lives in west Tennessee. \n\n\n\nWhen she’s not busy with her family\, she’s a fabric-obsessed quilter\, author\, pattern designer\, and quilt teacher! \n\n\n\nLife keeps her busy of course\, but she makes time to quilt- and her whole family is happier for it. It’s her creative outlet and her stress-reliever- in short\, she’s infatuated with it! \n\n\n\nKelly’s love affair with quilts began long before she ever owned her first sewing machine. She’s loved them for as long as she can remember and made her first quilt over 20 years ago!

SUMMARY:Lecture: Linda Everhart
DESCRIPTION:Linda’s Journey  \n\n\n\nLinda will share a selection of favorite quilts she made as events shaped her life and direction to get her where she is now. \n\n\n\nWebsite – http://quiltingamongfriends.com/ \n\n\n\nBio:Most of us have had the experience of becoming “all out excited” over a new hobby or activity only to cool once the “new” has worn off. That was Linda’s story until some 35 years ago when she made her first quilt and found herself immersed in a world of infinite possibilities with fabrics. Linda has produced a trunk show of quilts\, many of them of her own design. After making a complex reverse appliqué stain glass quilt\, Linda envisioned a simple way to make the same beautiful quilt. She has never “cooled” or even looked back. \n\n\n\nLinda trademarked her technique\, FUSIQUE®\, which is a fused reverse appliqué process. Linda successfully launched her pattern business Among Friends using her innovative technique. She appeared on Simply Quilts with Alex Anderson on HGTV\, and the PBS show Kaye’s Quilting Friends with Kaye Wood. Her work has been featured on the cover of Quilts & Other Comforts and exhibited in Lyon\, France at Expo Magic Quilt. \n\n\n\nShe’s teaching with Quilter’s Emporium on their 2023 Royal Caribbean Cruise.
