As promised, here are the details on the Patchwork Auditions Workshop if your group is interested in hosting an event. I will be booking select dates in 2017, so please contact me soon if you are interested. Thanks so much for everyone's excitement over the book this year and my appearance on Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting TV. I'd love to share my passion for modern traditional samplers with you!
Join author and designer AnneMarie Chany for a fun and colorful workshop to make a small 4 block modern sampler based on the popular Patchwork Auditions series and her new book, Sister Sampler Quilts. Explore different coloring options for traditional quilt blocks to think outside the box and rejuvenate quilt blocks we know and love. Whether you choose to make your sampler from just one block or make yours with 2 Sister Block Pairs, you’ll enjoy reimagining time-honored blocks with new possibilities. See Pricing here.
