A Short Video of some Motifs/Techniques Learned in the Free Courses!
REGISTRATION will remain open until midnight on July 15th (CST)
NOTE: I do not accept late or early registrations for classes...you need
to register within the dates of the open registration period. I'm
sorry, but I just have too much going on to keep up with early or deal
with late registrations.
The FREE class is self-paced, and expected
to take 4-8 weeks, depending on the time you have available to complete
the 12 assigned Tasks.
These 12-Tasks include:
1 - How to Use the Class Blog
2 - Selecting Supplies
3- Design Principles of CQ
4 - Sewing the Block
5 - Surface Beading Techniques
6 - Template Seams
7 - Shape Seams
8 - 11 Various Silk Ribbon Flowers
12 - Finishing (lace, charms, etc.)
The class is FREE, you will not be charged anything for the
instructions. You will need to obtain your own supplies as I do not sale
kits.

Basic CQ supplies include silk ribbon, pearl cotton threads, tiny beads,
etc. as the photo above indicates. None of these are in large quantity
for a single block that measures about the size of a sheet of print paper.
You will be required to use a quilting hoop (Q-snap is fine).
You WILL be required to access the private class blog (upon an
invitation sent to you) and post photos of your work as you progress
through the class.THIS IS AN ONLINE COURSE.

learn.
But, you DO NEED to have an operating camera and be able to take photos.
You do need a basic understanding of how to save these photos and then retrieve those picture files. IF you use an IPad to take photos...you will need to email them to yourself, download them to your computer, and then upload to the class blog. If you use a phone or camera...follow the instructions for that specific camera to upload photos to your computer.

information is required. Just basic information to "recognize" you as a

Since the class blog is Hosted on a Blogger platform...it does work best with a G-Mail Email address...but others have also worked just fine. If you do not have gmail, it is possible that you could need to set up a temporary account...just to get on the blog. I can still use your "normal" email to send you homework assignments.
You will need to be able to take PHOTOS of your
work, and UPLOAD them to the class blog. You will get instructions on
"blogging" so don't worry if you don't currently do that now; you will
learn.
But, you DO NEED to have an operating camera and be able to take photos, AND save them to your computer. So, you do need a basic understanding of how to save these photos and then retrieve those picture file for uploading.
If you take photos with an Iphone, Ipad, etc. then search for the free APP by Blogger...it has helped many students with fast uploading directly from their device to the class blog. I do not personally have any of these Apple devices...so am not much help at solving those "techie" problems.
