Instructor: Nancy Ruddock
This jacket is absolutely exquisite! Come into CQ to see how gorgeous it is!
Nancy will be teaching students a long list of skills in this wonderful workshop… You will start by creating a personalized muslin pattern for your jacket, learning how to measure a body for a pattern, and how to change a pattern to make it fit you just right. (That’s right, this jacket is not built over a sweatshirt - you are creating it from scratch to fit your fabulous curves!) Then you will learn how to make the angled bargello strips and sew them onto your pattern pieces in the beautiful layout of your choice. Finally you will learn how to construct the jacket from all your pieces! This jam-packed 6-week workshop is intended for intermediate to advanced sewers. Read more >
Every Wednesday, 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Hosted By: Denise Dodge & Jensi Rogers
Why spend money on more fabrics when gorgeous quilts are waiting to be created out of what you already have? Use all those scraps that have been piling up over the years! Join avid quilter Denise Dodge and learn tips and tricks for using your “extra” fabric…
Almost every Wednesday, 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Instructor: Deby Ryan, an alterations and upholstery expert!
Master Seamstress Deby Ryan will be at the CQ studio for FREE personal consultations. Bring in your alterations, upholstery, or garment design issues and she’ll offer her advice based on over 3 decades of experience. Then you can decide whether you’d like to tackle it on your own, book a class, or have Deby do all the work for you! No high-pressure sales, just great advice.
Rollover the calendar date on the right to see if Deby will be in this Wednesday!

Quilt ‘Til You Wilt!
Instructor: Ann Cummings
Use your scraps and those available at CQ to create one of the most popular quilt patterns ever, the log cabin OR work on any U(n) F(inished) O(bject) you wish!
Got a project you need to finish but have been putting it off? This evening is the perfect opportunity to make some progress. If, instead, you would like to learn how to create log cabin blocks, Ann will show you how to chain-piece multiple blocks at a time. You will be surprised at how many you can make in a single sitting. Before you know it, you will have enough blocks for whatever size quilt you want to make! There are so many fabulous layouts you will never get tired of making these blocks. Ann will also share tips on how to make two-color and controlled-scrappy log cabin quilts. Read more >
June 2 (Saturday); 10:30 am - 4:30 pm
Instructor: Stephanye Schuyler
(Note: this workshop can be taken alone, or as Session 1 with Fabric Collage Construction)
Stephanye Schuyler’s fabric collage quilts have been accepted into the Houston show this year! In this 2-part series, Stephanye will show you the techniques she used to create her uniquely beautiful works of art. Students will explore a path to their creativity through the development of a small fabric collage quilt. This is a two-session class, but students can opt to take either one of the sessions if they wish.
Session 1 will focus on the design of the fabric collage for students interested in creating their own piece. Stephanye will show you how to explore color and value as you learn the technique of translating your own photograph into a quilt! Read more >
