					<description><![CDATA[I have a  very well developed skill of taking something simple and making it complex. Here I go again. I&#8217;m going to be taking a Quilt Coat class with my local guild, the Folsom Quilt and Fiber Guild. The instructor, Diane Karna, sent out directions for prep work before class. The idea was to take&#8230;]]></description>

I taught a delightful group of newbie (mostly) free motion quilters at Meissner Sacramento last weekend and I took exactly two photos: I am sooo proud of Sally, who took the class last year and came back&#8230;]]></description>

One of the wonderful things about traveling to teach and lecture is getting to visit places as a traveler, not a tourist, and meeting other quilters. I visited the Los Angeles Modern Quilt Guild over the weekend and hung out in Santa Monica and&#8230;]]></description>

Yes, I was super sad to leave QuiltAway 2026, the San Francisco Quilters Guild&#8216;s semi-annual retreat. The SFQG is a 250 member guild, created in 1981. Eighty members attended&#8230;]]></description>

For 42 years Empty Spools has hosted some of the most influential and inspiring artists from across the globe. The very foundation upon which current textile art and quilting stands has been built in part by those who have taught there. I&#8230;]]></description>

The Valley Quilt Guild Show truly is unique and it starts at the entrance: The guild makes a new windsock each year. It&#8217;s so cool to see it fluttering in the&#8230;]]></description>
