From Inspiration to Design – Heather Jones – Sunday, January 20, 2019
Appropriate level: Intermediate to Advanced
Class description: Bring your inspiration to life as you create a one of a kind unique quilt pattern. Work with Heather Jones to create a quilt pattern inspired by something you have seen: an old building, a water tower, the sunset, etc. We’ll use a photograph of your inspiration as a starting point to create a quilt design. Heather will guide you through the process of sketching, designing pattern pieces, calculating yardage and construction methods, creating a color palette and fabric selection. You’ll leave the class with a complete pattern that’s ready to be constructed in your home studio.
Please note there will not be a supply kit provided. The updated workshop supply listing now includes graph paper sketchbook, pencil, and ruler to use in class.

The lure of indigo is strong — the classic blue and white combination found in many Japanese textiles is cool, crisp, and so appealing. From classic kimonos to denim jeans, indigo has been used by many cultures for dyeing cloth, and the Japanese have refined the use of indigo to an art form. This is the class to use all those lovely blue and white shibori fabrics you’ve dyed yourself, or use carefully curated blue and white fabrics from your stash. Each participant will develop a simple geometric block design based on unfolded origami shapes, set a theme and create variations, and combine them into the beginning of a fresh and modern mini quilt top.
The class runs from 9:30 AM-4:00 PM Eastern Time with a 1/2 hour break for lunch. The Zoom classroom opens at 9:00 AM and students should be online by 9:15 AM.
