I hope you see something you like and can start to plan your trip to Houston. We never know what life holds and I won't be doing this forever so now is the time to take these classes, while you can.

Enrollment for classes will open in early Summer--some of the classes for Houston fill on the first day! So I will be sure to give you plenty of notice when enrollment is announced. You need to be ready to ENROLL QUICKLY when that day comes.  

I hope to see a lot of you there.  Let's quilt!

  1. Sounds like you have a lot of good classes coming up. I can imagine there will be standing room only for the Quilter's Last Will and Testament! There are a lot of quilters coming to that place in life. I think that is something that even beginner quilters should consider when they start so they will have a continual plan.

  2. Looks like you are offering some great classes, Barbara!
    Western Sun and Oh, My Stars would certainly tempt me if I was going to attend--along with a lecture or two. I used to think I would get to Houston some day for the Festival, but now I'm not so sure.
