Ann Turley

You will learn just what it takes to get your quilt the recognition it deserves—great to know with our Show in the fall.  www.annturley.info

Mary Mashuta and Roberta Horton
"Double Trouble"

Mary joins her sister Roberta Horton for this special lecture. They share a love of quiltmaking, fabric, and color. They also share common genes. Their shared visions are filtered through different minds and expressed by different hands. Hear how the sisters share a home (with two studios, of course) and manage to produce quilts that express their own perspective and talent.

"Foolproof Machine Quilting: The Fun Stuff"

Be more creative with the walking foot than just stitching in the ditch. Create your own designs for blocks and borders by paper folding simple shapes. Use Mary’s no-marking method to stitch your designs with heavy threads on top of the machine. Add decorative stitching.
