Teaching

Thanks for your interest in having me teach your group!  I have information about currently available lectures and workshops below and you can contact me at Cheryl@MeadowMistDesigns.com.

Lectures

60 minute lecture and Q&A

Those three words, “quilt as desired” strike fear in many quilters. In this lecture, I take you through a step by step process you can use to help determine which quilt design you should use on your quilt, whether you are quilting the quilt yourself or sending it out to a quilting professional. This process helps you decide between allover versus custom patterns, which designs to use, and even quilting density and thread color. I will be showing many of my quilts and discussing how I decided on the quilting designs for each.
