We cover the basics of traditional hand quilting, including equipment, materials, and practicing consistent stitch length. The workshop focuses more particularly on improvisational design principles applied to this decorative stitching layer. Good for both beginners and those looking to take their hand quilting to the next level! Chawne Kimber is an award winning textile artist who has exhibited quilts and embroidery in galleries and festivals in all over the United States. When not manipulating cotton, she is a professor of mathematics at a small liberal arts college in the Northeast. Find Chawne on her blog or on Instagram!

We use layouts of squares of varied sizes to explore small-scale machine piecing that preserves stamina while producing detailed work. Equipment, fabrics, basic color theory, and structural integrity are essential elements we emphasize. A full-day workshop can result in a completed mini quilt top.
