8 - Free-Motion Machine Quilting (June 11-13) - Class Fee $ 210

Jeanne Pfister If you would rather be a “quilter” than a “topper” and completely construct your quilt creations from start to finish, this is the class for you!  Learn the basics for free-motion machine quilting in this step-by-step approach.  As each step is introduced you will have plenty of practice time, working with felt/batting/fabric “sandwiches” at each new skill level.  By the end of class you will feel confident to work on your own quilts at home.  A fabric/supply list will be sent to you prior to class.  Sewing machine in good working order with extended table and free-motion foot (open-toe darning foot) are required.  Geared for beginning to intermediate levels of quilters.  

18 - Quilt Studio (July 6-11) - Studio Fee $ 125

No Instructor The quilter’s dream—one uninterrupted week devoted to designing and piecing a major project, or experimenting with techniques there never seems time to do.  The studio space is yours—to put up designs, sew, lay out quilts for pinning, hand quilt, etc., in the company of other quilters.  We provide the studio, pin-up boards, tables for sewing and cutting; you provide your sewing machine, needed equipment and supplies.  You will be able to focus on what you like, work at your own pace, and take time to enjoy Washington Island whenever you like.

29 - Creating Your Own Landscape Quilt (August 8-11) - Class Fee $ 285

Natalie Sewell Learn to create a unique landscape that reflects your own artistic definition of a favorite scene.  This class requires no measuring, templates or patterns.  Starting with a favorite photo as a “jumping off” point, you will learn how to use fabric and scissors as your canvas and paintbrush.  The class will emphasize design techniques, but will also include tips for choosing borders and finishing your landscape quilt.  Plan to have fun and learn how to let yourself go artistically.  A fabric/supply list will be sent to you prior to class.  Sewing machine required.  For intermediate quilters. 

37 - Friendship Sampler Quilt (August 23-27) - Class Fee $ 380

Judy Hasheider Inspired by Mary Jo Scandin’s original design “Pieced Friendships,” this class offers a wide variety of quiltmaking techniques and types of piecing.  Several sections of the quilt will be traditionally pieced, such as the Flying Geese, Checkerboard and row of Houses.  Other areas will use more innovative techniques that may be new to some, i.e., the whimsical Daisies and free-form ‘scribbled’ Tree blocks.  Appliqué, either by machine or hand, is used in the Waves, Hearts and Sheep sections.  And, you will have the opportunity to portray yourself in the “I Am Woman” block.  Lastly, stencil painting will be used for the lettering that appears throughout the design.  If you prefer to come and work on your own independent study project while enjoying the atmosphere of the Island, you are welcome to do so.  Sewing machine required.  For intermediate to advanced quilters.
