In Free and Easy Paula Golden will show you a liberating approach to quilt making where there are no right or wrong answers! Explore color and design while creating a wall quilt using non-traditional sewing techniques. We will also talk about critics of our work and how to identify them, how to identify our style of quilt making, practice “letting loose” exercises. Each quilt top will be different depending on the fabric that is brought to the workshop. “I had zebras in my stash on the day I made the sample!”
Paula brings all the tools in her toolbox to every workshop and gives 110% if not more. “I am not a teach who cracks jokes or who has an outlandish personality. However, I have had a passion for quilt making, quilt history, quilters and the art for over 40 years. I think that comes through in each class. We are part of a long river of fiber enthusiasts and share many things in common.”
Paula’s work is part of the permanent collection of the University of Michigan Hospital’s Gifts of Arts Program.

In the Frolicking Felines workshop Paula Golden will teach color and basic paper foundation piecing. The challenge in this class is to select colors and values that define the student’s goal. Each person’s goal will be different. It helps refine our color choices, but this is not limited to quilting as we will explore how the same principles are used in interior design, fashion and gardening. She will help you create a fun wall quilt from a simple tessellated paper foundation to show off your new skills in understanding value, shading and color.
Paula brings all the tools in her toolbox to every workshop and gives 110% if not more. “I am not a teach who cracks jokes or who has an outlandish personality.
