Classes and Seminars
I'm so excited about The Word in Patchwork that I
can't wait to share! I am available to teach, speak, or present a "trunk
show" of my quilts for your church, women's group, guild or quilt
shop.
Drop me a line
if you would like to explore the possibilities.
Seminars and Lectures:
- Pieces of the Word-- A great program for an outreach evening:
beautiful fabrics, striking quilts and the powerful Word of God combine
in a presentation that touches hearts and changes lives. Kim uses the Bible
Block samplers and other quilts to illustrate the timeless truths of scripture.
- The World in Patchwork-- Bible Block quilt trunk show illustrates
the amazing way God has taken the Quilters' Neighbourhood from a small
Partners in Patchwork quilt group in Squamish, BC, Canada to the world!
A great introduction to your own quilt program.
- The Hope That Is In Me-- [1 Peter 3:15 ] God draws straight
paths before us, sometimes with very crooked lines! There will be lots
of laughter, and few tears as Kim shares her testimony, accompanied by
ashow of personal quilts.
- Minding Your Patchwork"Ps": Christmas Quilts -- A
clear gospel message and timely reminders for a truly "perfect"
Christmas, focus onChristmas quilt projects in a unique presentation for
your women's outreach during the busy holiday season.
- Jacob's Ladder -- Kim demonstrates modern patchwork techniques
with the first block from The Word in Patchwork. Choose either a one-hour
demonstration or a three-hour hands-on workshop. Either way, participants
will be inspired and encouraged to discover how easy beautiful patchwork
can be. Great start for a quilt outreach program.
- Mystery Mixer-- A fun and different activity for your next social.
Each participant sews a few small seams with help from Kim. At the end
of the evening, a table runner quilt top is revealed and given away as
a door prize!

beginners' class or make several blocks during a weekend retreat for a
table runner. Kim introduces quick rotary cutting techniques and basic
patchwork.

table runner [some advance preparation is necessary]. Groups may choose
to work cooperatively to make a banner using the same elements.
