SPEAKER CLASSES

In addition to workshops led by guild members, we also sponsor professional classes with guest speakers from our monthly general meetings. It is a great opportunity to learn from accomplished quilt artists.

Registration opens 90 days prior to the class date. Payment reserves your spot in the class. Class payments are non-transferable. Non-members are welcome to sign up, but will be charged a slightly higher fee. Registrants may cancel up to 35 days before the class.

GQCCC may choose to cancel the class if the minimum number of signups is not reached prior to the date noted in the class description. The minimum number of students varies by class.

If the instructor is available to teach locally, the class will be held in-person GQCCC’s Farmhouse location at 5554 Clayton Rd in the “Big Room”. Otherwise, the class will be held over Zoom.

    Scrappy Appliqué® is a raw-edge collage technique created by Shannon Brinkley. It is fun, freeing, and perfect for all skill levels. You choose your project, colors, stitching, and finish. It’s playful, forgiving, and a great way to use those beloved scraps. Let’s create something bold, washable, and totally you!

    This speaker class is a six-hour deep dive into the process, hands-on, and full of “aha” moments:

    • Step-by-step breakdown of the entire process
    • Pro tips and tricks for stunning results
    • How to work with different shapes and sizes
    • Techniques like sewing with clear thread and satin stitching
    • Personalized support to ensure every member feels confident and ready to create
