Houston Quilt Festival

We have just heard from the Houston Quilt Festival organizers and we are excited to report that the Festival will go on!  AND we will be teaching a class!  The organizers are being very careful in the planning of this event as they want to keep everyone safe.  Unfortunately the number of classes has been greatly reduced to allow for social distancing.  Thankfully our class was not cut and we are forging ahead.  All registrations for the class will be online and I'm not sure of the date for the opening of those classes, but I will keep you informed.

We are back in full swing with our classes at Zilss Hall in Winchester, Texas.  We had a class on April 24 with 11 very enthusiastic painters!  Everyone had been vaccinated, so we were able to "go maskless".  How fun is that??

We are wide open for our May 15 class, so signup if you're interested.  The new class fee is $65.00

I had such a wonderful day working on my quilt block. First of all the drive there is so relaxing and if you keep your eyes open you will see loads of quilt blocks along the way on fences, houses, barns, etc.
There are a lot of pattern choices for you to choose from. I knew immediately when I saw the pattern that was for me on that day. The ladies are so helpful and positive. I just lost myself in the work. I have a stressful job and I just melted in relaxation with each hour that flew by and I knew when I walked out the door I that WILL be back again. A friend told me about the class and I am so happy that I got to go! I am getting ready to sign up again!

I took a class after learning about the trail during the Houston International Quilt Show. I have not had that much fun creating something in a very long time! While I can sew, I definitely cannot paint... The instructions and materials provided during the class enabled me to create a beautiful custom quilt block that I proudly hang in my sewing studio.

Thank you Winchester Quilt Trail for spreading the love of sewing through this Quilt Block Trail!

I’ve taken four classes and loved everyone. Lots of fun and hard work but the blocks are so great have all four on my house.
