Want to quilt your quilts on your home machine and maybe free motion quilting isn’t for you? Join quilter extrordinaire Jacquie Gering for a 6-hour workshop to discover the joy and creative possibilities of quilting with your walking foot. Straight-line quilting has a long history and is making a comeback in both modern and traditional quilts. Learn the basics as well as tips and tricks for successful quilting with your walking foot along with creative quilting designs that can be accomplished on your home machine. This live/zoom workshop is based on designs and information in Jacquie’s book ‘WALK: Mastering Machine Quilting With Your Walking Foot.’
Member registration coming soon. Class fee $85. This workshop is a 6-hour live-stream event, conducted on Zoom, consisting of live instruction (no recording, please). Learn more about Jacquie from her website here and Jacquie’s blog here with additional information – and check out this video of Jacquie in her quilting element.
Registration for non-members opens December 14th and will be $95.
Workshops are open to all Guild members on a ‘first-come’ basis. One must register with payment to confirm participation. Workshops are publicized to Guild members first, and members have the benefit of several months of promotion to register before any non-Guild members may register. Two months prior to the Workshop, the Workshop will be offered to the public, at a non-Guild member rate. For the Guild to host professional instructors we need to cover instructor costs and therefore once an individual is registered there are no cancellations/refunds. Members may “transfer” their registration to another member; the Guild and its workshop chairs will not be responsible for this exchange and all arrangements and funds will be exchanged between the individual guild members. Once a member has found someone to exchange with, they are responsible for notifying the Guild chairs so that the appropriate attendee will be notified of all class information.
Waitlists: Once a Workshop is full, the Guild will keep a Waitlist. Please contact the Workshop co-chairs at directly at workshops@sfquiltersguild.org to be placed on the Waitlist. If an enrolled member is unable to find a replacement, they may contact the co-chairs, to learn of any members on a Waitlist.
