SUMMARY:Beginning Collage (Laura Heine's Method) - Jenny Satterthwait - Workshop 03/21/25
DESCRIPTION:This class is taught by Jenny Satterthwait. \nCost for the workshop is $40.  Refunds for cancellations may be requested until Feb. 21st. After that date\, registrations become nonrefundable . . . and any remaining openings will be made available to nonmembers. \nChoose any of Laura Heine’s Teeny Tiny Collage patterns to jump into the colorful world of collage and create your own one-of-a-kind work of art. This class will explore your creative side and is a perfect way to learn collage basics. Warning: You will never look at fabric the same way! Tip: The Sewing Machine is such a fun beginning collage project that can be made to your personal unique specifications. All Teeny Tiny patterns come with 3 different projects. \nSupplies Required:   \n– Laura Heine Teeny Tiny Collage Pattern \n\nNote: You can find patterns at a lot of quilt stores. I know Quilt Crossing carries several. You can also buy the patterns on Etsy. One of the easiest ways to collage\, however\, is to go to Laura Heine’s website: www.fiberworks-heine.com and purchase a pattern and a fabric kit made for the pattern. You can purchase other supplies at Fiberworks but\, to be honest\, you will pay a premium.\n\n– Fabric listed on Pattern. These are small projects so you will not need large pieces. Scraps are perfect. If you are buying fabric for your collage\, you do not need more than 1/8 yard. Some shops have small cuts or scraps of fabric that are very inexpensive and perfect for collage! We will not have access to a quilt store during class so if you pick out your own fabric\, brings lots of choices. If you are able\, I do recommend buying the kit on Laura’s website. \n– Pattern Ease foundation (if it is listed on chosen pattern)  You may or may not need the pattern ease depending on how you finish your collage. For example\, if you collage your subject and decide to put it on a whole piece of fabric\, you will not need he pattern ease. Collaged or tiled backgrounds need to be done on pattern ease. At the end of the day\, it is easier if you have it so you have choices. Available at quilt stores\, JoAnns or Walmart. \n– Steam a Seam 2 yardage per your chosen pattern; I recommend the12” wide (which is easier to work with than the 18” or 24”). Please do NOT buy Steam a Seam 2 Lite and do not substitute another kind of fusible; it does not work as well. I will bring extra Steam a Seam 2 to class in case it is needed. SAS2 is available at quilt stores or online. \n– Karen K Buckley Medium Perfect Scissors (Blue Handle). Please note that this brand of scissors works really well with the Steam a Seam 2 and the serrated scissor edges help cut down on frayed fabric edges. If you bring a different pair of scissors\, make sure they are not too big. You will be cutting some delicate lines. Again\, these are available at quilt stores or online. \n  \n– Applique Pressing Sheet 17 x 24. This sheet will be used a lot while you are fusing fabric. You should not fuse fabric without this at any time. \n– Precision Fusing Mat 17 x 24 (this mat comes with a pressing sheet)  Side note: I LOVE THIS MAT!!! We will build our collages on this mat so it is imperative that you have it or a pressing sheet that you can see through. These mats are available on Amazon\, Quilt Stores or online at Wal-Mart. \n– Stiletto\, Purple Thang or Tweezers \n– #2 Pencil and Fine Tip Sharpie \n— Notebook and Pen for taking notes \n– Phone for taking pictures or Reducing Glass (Door Peephole from a hardware store) \n Optional but helpful supplies: \n\nTravel Iron and Wool Pressing Mat. Please note that it may not be possible to plug this in at your table because the venue may not have outlets near the worktables.\n\nRequired Pre Class Prep: To be fully prepared for class\, you will need to fuse some of your fabric. Please call Jenny at 208/890-3525 to talk about your specific project and what you need to do to prepare.

SUMMARY:Journey by Collage - Jenny Satterthwait - Program 03/20/25
DESCRIPTION:Local quilter Jenny Satterthwaite will be the featured guest speaker at our March 2025 guild meeting. Collage has taken me on many journeys: from a photograph to a quilt; from cutting fabric to ‘painting’ with fabric; and from an accountant to an artist (or at least that is what it feels like for me). This lecture is about sharing those journeys in the hope that it will inspire you to take a new journey. \nMy collage quilts include using fusible (Laura Heine)\, using just fabric and glue (Susan Carlson)\, blending these two artists (Emily Taylor)\, and then taking some of each of these women to create my own process.

SUMMARY:"Finding Your Passion and Running with It" - Jean Impey - Program
DESCRIPTION:This will be BBQ’s first-ever “hybrid” guild meeting!  Please join us at the church as usual to hear our guest speaker on the big screen and be able to participate in all the usual activities available at in-person guild meetings. However\, if you are unable to attend the meeting\, this is your chance to be able to log in from home and listen to our guest speaker via Zoom! \nIn her presentation\, “Finding Your Passion and Running With It\,” Jean Impey promises to help you explore how to uncover what makes your quilts unique and special\, and learn steps to pursue your own distinctive style. \n\n\nJean will share how the spider web design made such a huge impression on her back in 2007 that she found she couldn’t make them fast enough to keep up with all the ideas that originated from this one design!  In addition to a digital trunk show of some of the fabulous quilts that came out of this obsession\, Jean’s presentation includes an actual tutorial so you can try a few spiderwebs of your own.\n\nJean is a seasoned textile artist from San Juan Capistrano\, California\, who has taught classes across the nation\, created several commissioned public art pieces\, and been featured on the cover of Quilting Arts magazine and on Quilting Arts Television.

SUMMARY:The Magic of Foundation Paper Piecing - Nancy Messuri - 10/17/24
DESCRIPTION:Nancy Messuri is a self-employed Idaho-based quilt designer. Paper copies of her patterns are available through https://quiltwoman.com and pdf patterns through her website\, https://nancymessuridesigns.com. \nFoundation paper piecing is Nancy’s go-to method of constructing blocks and Electric Quilt 8 is her favorite design platform. Her trademark is intricate designs that require careful piecing\, but she sometimes breaks out of that mold with a less complex design when the mood strikes. \nIn 2023\, Nancy was selected to be a Benartex Ambassador along with ten other designers. As an ambassador for the international fabric supplier\, Nancy designed numerous products to be featured in Benartex publications and assisted in the Benartex booth at the Missouri Star Quilt Festival. Her relationship with Benartex as a designer continues to this day.  \nNancy’s quilt Criss Cross Stars was selected as the signature quilt for the 2023 International Quilt Festival Long Beach and was prominently featured on the cover of the program and all advertising materials. Along with Criss Cross Stars\, her quilt\, Ripple Effect\, hung at the 2023 International Quilt Festival Houston and was used extensively in promotions of that show. In addition\, her quilt\, Spinning Song\, will be hanging at International Quilt Festival 2024

SUMMARY:Carolyn Hutchinson-It's Magic! -- BBQ Membership Meeting and Program
DESCRIPTION:Carolyn Hutchinson\, owner and designer of Carolyn’s In Stitches will be sharing a “Mini\nTrunk Show”\, highlighting her series of patterns called “Magic Tricks”. Her designs are a\ncombination of traditional and modern. Many of her designs came from asking “What if…?”\nThis series of patterns is the perfect example. Attempting to simplify the piecing of a\ncomplicated design\, Carolyn created a technique that rendered a totally unexpected block.\nWhile the created block was initially not the desired result\, and some would have cast them\naside and started over\, she continued to play “What if?” \nThe result was the first quilt in this series called\, “Windfarm”. Continuing to experiment with\ncolor selection\, strip rotation and different combinations of both\, six additional quilts\nemerged. \nAll of these designs are made from a combination of 2 ½” and 5” strips\, with no small pieces.\nAfter the first seven in this series were published\, Carolyn experimented with using only 2\n½” strips and three additional patterns were “born”. These patterns were just released at\nher Spring Retreat. \nWhile Carolyn used lots of geometry and math in creating and writing these patterns\, all the\nhard work has been done\, leaving only very easy piecing that goes together quickly. Two of\nthe patterns\, “Hinged” and “Line Dancing” make two different quilts at the same time. \nIt’s Magic!

SUMMARY:BBQ Membership Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Dating Quilts\nby Joyce Shoemaker\, a representative of the Quilt Heritage Museum and an AQS Textile Appraiser \nThis presentation will cover an array of aspects which speak to many quilt eras. We will discuss clues to dating fabrics including fabric colors\, blocks\, styles\, popular trends\, and edge finishes\, to name a few. Viewers will see a number of Quilt Heritage Museum collection quilts representing different quilt time periods. Attendees are invited to bring a quilt of their own to get answers as to its circa date. \nJoyce has been a quilter for nearly three decades. In 2007\, she travelled to Paducah\, KY\, to take the exams\, and became an American Quilters’ Society Certified Textile Appraiser. Before that\, she presented quilting workshops on a variety of techniques in five Western states. Her personal quilts are heavily influenced by the array of nature and wildlife she sees while growing alfalfa on her farm in eastern Idaho.
