A Day in My Studio: Getting Ready for a Workshop on Quilting

Workshops require meticulous planning and are not spontaneous events. Before students arrive, several preparations take place in my studio.


Getting Supplies
To help students get started right away, pre-cut fabric, thread, tools, machines, and kits are laid out.

Creating a Class Flow
Strike a balance between teaching and practical experience. My objective is for students to leave with a completed project and the knowledge gained.

Creating the Scene
The studio is set up to encourage discussion, inspiration, and creativity. Music, wall quilts, and well-lit areas set the mood.

The Significance of This
Students are a part of a creative community when they enter my space, not just for sewing.
