Virtual Quilt Shows



Virtual Quilt Shows?

How does that work?


I'm about to teach for the second time in a Virtual Quilt Show!  Each Venue has a different set of rules and requirments for the instructors as well as the show organizers have different desires for their show.  So, this new venue for teaching and quilt shows will probably be different each time.  

There are some advantages to the Virtual classes:
1. You will not forget something at home! LOL! (We've ALL done this!)
2. If you make a mistake cutting while in class, you have your whole stash right there with you!
3. NO LUGGING big HEAVY machines around!
4. No packing up and unpacking when you get home!
5. You're in your own home, using your nice machine!
6. You're in the privacy of your own home!
7. You're in your comfortable surroundings!
8. You can still go to the bathroom when you want...(But it's nice to be in your own bathroom).
9. You can still ask ALL the questions you want!!!
10.  Each teacher should have different camera views when teaching.
11. There will NOT be people in front of you...you'll be able to see the demo!!!
12. You get to see some of our machines...and we're comfortable on our own machine too.

So, TRY A VIRTUAL CLASS!!!
The Mancuso QuiltFest is coming up JUNE 25-29, 2020 and registration for classes has already begun!

I'll be teaching 3 classes:
1. All About Threads!   This is a fun lecture and you'll learn a lot about all different threads!
2. Beginning Ruler Work on your Domestic machine!  We start at the beginning on how to hold a ruler, how to work with a ruler, and how to thingk with a ruler...It's all a little different than we're used to.  You'll learn ALL the basics!  Then we'll take a short break and come back and create designs with the ruler!  There is a kit fee for this class...there's a special ruler I've created, with 4 different sides to it, so you don't have to spend a lot of money on rulers just to see if you even like working with rulers.  This is a FUN class and opens up a whole new world of free motion quilting!  
3. From one Design to Another - Oh, the fun we have in this class!!!  We think outside the box and learn to manipulate designs!!!  I try really hard to get you to play around and relax and ENJOY quilting in this class!  
Come on ladies...take a class!  
LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!!!


Sew the pieces of life together,
They make a BEAUTIFUL quilt!
