Workshops with Jean Stephens
As promised we have made arrangements with Jean Stephens to present two workshops, one on machine quilting and one on fabric colouring techniques for quilters. Jean did her trunk show at our October 30 meeting, and we were all impressed with her skill and creativity in both machine quilting and colouring on quilts.
The workshops will take place on Thursday, May 14 at Westdale. Registration (with payment required) will open at our meeting on February 5 on a first come, first serve basis. The fee for one workshop is $25, and for both workshops is $40. There is a limit of 15 for each workshop as Jean likes to be able to provide individual support to each participant.
