Electric Quilt Classes
Instructor: Nancy Mahoney
Palm Coast, Florida 32164
www.nancymahoney.com
Nancy designs all of her quilts using this versatile and user-friendly software
program. A laptop and projector are used for both lectures and workshops so
everyone can see and follow along. For lectures; your guild or larger group
will see how to develop an idea into a stunning quilt. The audience will participate
in designing the final quilt. In class, students will gain confidence in designing
quilts in a fun and informative setting. Laptop computers for each student
are encouraged, but not mandatory.
Lecture - 1 1/2 hours
Workshop - 1/2 day, 1 day or 2 day
Barb Gardner

(303) 926-1512
Barb does guild lectures and classes, using both EQ5 & EQ6.
For lectures,
she has a laptop and projector so can show your guild or larger group how an idea can
be developed into patterns and a quilt. The audience gets to participate in
the designing & changing. For those not interested in computer design, she will bring
a fantastic trunk show. Programs usually run 45-90 minutes.
For classes, members will be given a tour of both programs. Those who own the program
will go home with the confidence to start working with it. Those who don't own it will have
a
change to see if it fits their designing style. Again, the projector is used so everyone
can see well and the trunk show, handouts and sample projects gives inspirations. Those
who have the program on a laptop can bring it to work on. Classes usually run 3-6 hours.
All
programs can be tailored to the specific needs of your group and travel expenses could be
shared among several groups. Barb also has a pattern line and teaches classes from them.
See the web site for photos.
Barb lives north of Denver Colorado but is willing to travel.

ELECTRIC QUILT 6 DRAWING
Want to create your own block designs? In this Electric Quilt 6 software class we’ll learn to draw both pieced and appliqué designs. For the pieced portion, we will start simple and edit existing blocks like the Ohio Star or Four Patch. Then we will move into drawing Lone Stars and New York Beauties. For the appliqué portion, we will start with drawing a simple flower, then learn how to turn it into an elaborate wreath with threadwork around it. The drawing tools covered will unlock a whole new world of design possibilities for you.

LAYOUTS
Tired of designing only in straight sets and with blocks all the same size? Well, let’s use Electric Quilt 6 software and make it do the math. We will start simple with a medallion quilt and add borders. Next we’ll design a row quilt with different row widths. Then we’ll move into Custom Set and how easy it is in EQ6 to draw your own layout and turn it into a Custom Set quilt. By the end of this class you will have a stockpile of ideas and tricks for creating your next masterpiece.
