Registration is NOW OPEN to members for our February 2027 workshop: Ahead of the Curve - with Diane Harris, a.k.a. the Stash Bandit. It will be an all-day workshop on Zoom.

Date: February 6, 2027
Times: 9:00am - 3:30pm CST
Workshop format: online, via ZOOM
Price: $75 for WMQG members

In this relaxed workshop, you'll learn to cut and sew large, gentle curves while paying attention to value and scale for smashing results. We’ll cover many ideas for adding machine quilting details and hand stitched embellishments. Then you'll learn how to finish it off with a facing as an alternative to binding. We'll make a four-section piece as shown; the size will vary depending on your choices. Later you can create more sections if you want a larger quilt. Sew from your stash if you like! Lots of fun, very little stress and a unique quilt creation.
