You’ve asked for it, and it’s finally here!
This self-paced workshop blends my love of appliqué, piecing, and design exploration—with the powerful creative tools of Procreate and good old-fashioned pencil + paper.
Whether you’re tech-curious or more comfortable with sketching by hand, you’ll find a path that fits you perfectly. Each module builds confidence and skill, guiding you from your first idea to a beautifully constructed quilt top.
This isn’t just a “how-to” class.
It’s a design journey—one that encourages experimentation, thoughtful choices, and joy in the process.
We explore shape, color, and value from multiple angles. You’ll gain the tools and mindset to take any idea—abstract or realistic—and bring it into quilt form with clarity and flow.
And because connection matters to me, every participant receives a 30-minute private coaching session for direct feedback, guidance, and conversation.
✨ Throughout the year, I’ll also be hosting impromptu live sessions — informal, creative gatherings where we can meet, share progress, ask questions, and simply connect as a community of makers. I’ll continue to expand this class over time with additional Procreate demonstrations, design explorations, and new resources, so your creative journey keeps unfolding.
Payment plans are available at checkout.
Module 1: Procreate Tutorials
Learn the fundamentals and beyond: how to use layers, brushes, color palettes, and photo references to explore ideas. You’ll experiment with color, value, and design composition in new ways, but always with an eye toward your fabric reality.
(No experience necessary—each video builds gently on the last.)
Module 2: Paper + Pencil Techniques
Not everyone loves working digitally—and that’s perfectly fine!
Here, we return to the tactile joy of paper, exploring simple drawing approaches that reveal form, proportion, and movement. You’ll see how your sketches can stand alone or translate seamlessly into digital tools later if you choose.
Module 3: The Exercise
This module focuses on technique and design flow.
Through a guided exercise, you’ll explore how to assemble complex or simple shapes with ease, troubleshoot common challenges, and play with composition using accessible methods. I offer multiple options so you can choose what feels right for you.
Module 4: Making the Pattern
Now it all comes together.
We move into creating a full-scale pattern on freezer paper, using a technique combining appliqué + piecing.
I’ll share my process of studying value and color through short Procreate demos—before we begin the hands-on assembly.
You’ll also receive my original pattern design to construct as-is or adapt into something uniquely your own.
Not at all. I walk you through everything from the basics onward, with short, focused videos.
Perfect! Module 2 is dedicated to paper + pencil techniques, and the whole course encourages you to work in the way that feels most natural.
It’s truly both—but design comes first. You’ll learn techniques through design practice.
Yes, it’s completely self-paced. You can revisit any module whenever you wish.
Yes! Each enrollment includes a 30-minute private coaching session via Zoom, and you’ll have access to a Private Community where I’m active and available for questions and support. You never have to wait for a scheduled session — I’m there regularly to support you and cheer you on. 😃
