The Magic of Fabulous Faces:
No Sewing Machine Required
Jean Impey Presents:
What happens when two inspiring and energetic Artists, combine their love of quilting, friendship, and talents? Creativity explodes into a one-of-a-kind workshop…
“The Magic of Fabulous Faces”
Renowned quilters Freddy Moran (94 years old) and Jean Impey joined their creative spirits back in 2017 when they agreed to teach a Collage Retreat. Each artist had their own unique style of portraits, and each portrait has a unique story and name.
This workshop promises to be the most enjoyable one yet! Dive into the art of crafting expressive faces with ease and minimal materials. Then, uncover unique quilting techniques, “Pencil Quilting” and “Sketchy Quilting” to bring your design to life.
Class Fee Members: $45.00 (opens 9/08/25)
Class Fee Non-Members: (available 10/8/25): $60.00
Skill level: Creative beginner and beyond!

Twinkle:
Create a Liberated Eight Point Star quilt using a variation of the nine-patch block. Learn how to place different size blocks together into one big, beautiful quilt. In this class you will learn about improv sewing, designing blocks with personality, while keeping your work squared and accurate.
Twinkle is both easy to make and easy to make it modern with your fabric choices and color blocking.
No two blocks are alike… different sizes, colors, fabrics, dimensions!
This makes it personal and unique.
Class Fee Members: $45.00 (opens 9/9/25)

Guest Lecturer: Jean Impey
Doors open at 9:00am; meeting begins at 9:45am.
The spider web design made a huge impression on Jean back in 2007. She started making one and then found she couldn’t make them fast enough to keep up with all the ideas that originated from this one design.
Jean loves sharing her spider webs with others, showing them how one thing leads to another and when you find something that clicks, you need to keep at it, maybe you call it a series?
Jean brings slides and samples featuring over 100 quilts to show along with her Spider Web Series to demonstrate how “Passion” can take over and lead you on an amazing path.
Please bring your Show 'n Tell pieces to share at the meeting
Doors open at 6:00pm; meeting begins at 6:45pm.
