  • Salem Courthouse Quilters

    Just north of Schaghticoke, in Washington County is the cute little village of Salem, NY.  AND like most villages in the US, they have a group of quilters, The Salem Courthouse Quilters!    They invited me to teach a pocketbook class on November 14th – and they decided to make the Julie Just Right Bag!…

  • Doe Camp at Quilters Corner in Middlebury Vermont

    Yes, that’s correct!  DOE CAMP in Vermont!  I taught there on November 9th and 10th (which happens to be opening of Deer season in Vermont).  The class was sponsored by Carla, owner of Quilters Corner – 1428 Rt 7 in Middlebury Vermont.  It’s a GREAT shop to check out and is located just south of…

  • A Notion to Quilt , and “Up North” again

    It’s time for catch up!  Yes, I’ve been remiss and not posting photos of all the wonderful quilters and my classes! Better late than never, right?? Anyway, I traveled “over the mountain” to Shelburne Falls, Ma late last month to one of my very favorite quilt shops, A Notion To Quilt.  I LOVE that name. …

  • Lake Pleasant Quilters

    I spent three beautiful, gorgeous, fabulous days hanging out in one of my favorite places in the world, the New York’s Adirondack mountains!  The ADK mtns are always special, and every season is wonderful, spring, summer, fall and winter!  So anyway, I was asked to teach a workshop for the Lake Pleasant Quilters who wanted to…

  • Snow Country Quilter’s Guild

    I had an opportunity to spend two days with a GREAT bunch of quilters near Utica, NY.  The Snow Country Quilter’s!  They were loads of fun and fantastic quilter’s too!  On Friday, they treated me to dinner at a really fun diner, The Soda Fountain!  Like a local Johnny Rockets! Loved the music! 🙂 That…

  • New Hampshire Capital Quilters Guild

    I spent last Friday and Saturday hanging out with the Capital Quilters of New Hampshire.  What a great bunch of ladies!  They made me feel so welcomed that I felt like I was visiting with old friends!   AND the weather was perfect for a road trip from upstate New York, through the southern Green Mountains…

  • Log Cabin Fabrics, Selkirk, NY

    I just completed another weekend workshop at Log Cabin Fabrics in Selkirk, NY, and I realized that I‘ve never “showcased” the new Log Cabin Quilt shop!  Well, I’m about to rectify that right now!  So, if you haven’t made your way to Londa’s, Lisa’s and Bonnie’s new shop, then here is what you are missing…

  • Cairo Piecemakers

    A few Saturdays past I was invited to hold a workshop for the Cairo Piecemakers, at, surprise, surprise, Cario, NY!  :)   A great brunch of quilters from a beautiful little village in the Catskill Mountains of New York State. The quilters decided to make patterns from my “Over East” series.  I’m always amazed at how…

  • Quilting Workshops

    Summer can be very busy!  Especially when I ‘throw’ in several workshops, but you know that I love teaching them and wanted to share some pictures with all of you.  First off, back in July, on the 22nd, I traveled over to Lee, Ma, to the Pumpkin Patch.  Susan and Dan are so great, and…

  • A Notion to Quilt – the Bag Ladies

    As I’ve stated many times – I LOVE teaching the Bag Lady classes!  Just yesterday I spent a fun time in Shelburne Falls, MA (the village known as the bridge of flowers), at one of my very favorite quilt shops ever!  A Notion to Quilt is the shop, and it’s located just south of the…
