This fast moving, information-packed digital lecture focuses on her recent quilts, and takes an in-depth look at their development. She will discuss, in detail, her personal methods for finding inspiration and creating designs. Her sewing and quilting technques will be included, with lots of close-up details.  A question and answer time after each lecture is welcome.

Various methods of machine quilting will be introduced and demonstrated in this class, and you will have a chance to make a small sample of each one. Major emphasis will be on free-motion (feed-dogs down, hand guided) quilting. Workshop will include a slide lecture full of information and inspiration.
