Online Lectures and Classes for Quilt Guilds

In the summer of 2020, I set up a "TV" studio with professional microphone, lights, multi-camera system and pivoted to teaching virtually to quilters and quilt guilds.  I've been honored to have virtually presented classes and lectures to over 100 guilds since that time. 

I am curently booking virtual classes and lectures.

If your guild would like more information,  please fill out my online contact form here and I will send you a complete information packet.

Virtual Lectures

QUILTS OF ILLUSIONS

Explore the world of optical illusions with Karen as she shows you some of the wonderful quilts that she has created and shares tricks and tips how to make them.  This virtual lecture will be a combination of live presentation, slides, quilts and videos.  It is a beautiful and inspiring trunk show. There will be time for questions after the lecture

YOU BOUGHT THAT WHERE?!?

A fun and information lecture!  Let Karen take you around her little town, searching for the best quilting supplies found in some unexpected places.  It's amazing what you can find at the local "feed" store!  As a bonus, Karen will take you into her studio to show you how she uses many of her finds. 

Virtual Classes

 Chip out of Every Block (4 hour class)

Does the chip go in or does it go out?  A fun quilt of illusion, so simple to make, once you know how.  A throw that can grow to any size you wish!  Let Karen show you how easy it is to create an intriguing quilt of illusion.

Karen will send a fabric selection video, supply list and pre-cutting video before class.  In class, we will look at value tips, fabric placement, cutting and sewing tips, layout options, border options and start sewing.  Students will probably get 2 or 3 blocks done in class. 

Information and supply list for class is located here.
