PROJECTS FROM PRIOR WORKSHOPS


Wendy Mathson: TRIMplate piecing: Storm at Sea and Snails Trails Block
March 1, 2025


Wendy Mathson conducted a lively workshop showing participants how to create the two quilt blocks using her TRIMplate tool. The tool aided in accurate blocks, for a variety of block sizes. Members chose which block they wanted to make, and the wide variety of fabrics made for interesting block designs.

Rami Kim: Two by Two: 3-D Hexagon, Flowers, Quilt, & Bag
Oct 16, 2024

​
Rami Kim led a workshop on October 16 on "Two By Two: 3-D Hexagon, Flowers, Quilt, & Bag." Participants enjoyed learning about fabric folding techniques to make 3-dimensional hexagon flowers, which could be assembled into a wall hanging or bag. Rami also shared folding techniques for another type of hexagon, kimono type jacket and a flange-type flower petal. It was a fun and informational workshop. Enjoy the hexagon flowers from some of the participants.

Kena Dorsey: Let's Make a Selfie Portrait
August 2024


Our August speaker was Kena Dorsey, who led a workshop, "Let's Make a Selfie Portrait." Participants learned how to make a pattern from a photograph of their choosing, which was "posterized" to highlight areas of different values on the photograph. She also explained how to choose fabrics and assemble the fabrics into a collage. Kena showed some examples of her work which were very inspiring. It was a challenging and creative technique, and we hope the results will be amazing. Check back later for more photos of the participants projects. 

Alex Tsubota: Landscapes Made Easy
June 1 and June 8, 2024

Alex Tsubota held a workshop on June 1 on how to make a landscape quilt. Alex supplied the pattern and explained how to create the tracing pattern and cut the fabric taking into account the required overlap. The participants also learned about different kinds of fusible and how to create a pattern from a photograph. The participants had a fun day and got a lot done on their projects. Individual color choices led to very different landscapes and added to the fun.  The workshop was so popular that Alex taught a second session on June 8. 

Catherine Redford: Basics of Wool Applique
April 2024

​Eighteen students spent an enjoyable Saturday learning the basics of wool applique from Catherine Redford.  In the morning we cut out, layered, and basted our pieces down, then whip-stitched around each piece.  In the afternoon we learned 5 or 6 embroidery stitches, starting with the basics and advancing to fly, bullion, feather, and drizzle stitches, as well as beaded backstitch.  If you ever have a chance to take a class from Catherine, you'll learn and laugh all day!

Anne Sonner: Foundation Paper Piecing
February 2024

Anne Sonner held her  foundation paper piecing workshop based on a unique sampler, which was designed specifically for our guild.  The workshop, titled “SBQG By the Sea,” included basics in foundation paper piecing for the beginner and had more challenging blocks as well. The participants learned  both traditional and custom blocks. The custom sampler is also shown.
