Her classes on Miniature Quilts enables even the beginner to create a realistic, dollhouse size quilt. However, students may select the size they want, from Miniature to Small Wall hangings. Most classes are half-day sessions. One pattern per student is provided with each class.
“Drunkard's Path” , mini to full size, and “Curves & Swerves” , full size only, classes do require a class fee for the set of templates needed. No mileage within 100 miles, just a travel trailer park is needed. Lectures include, "So You Really Want To Make a Miniature?" trunk show and “Things your quilt teacher never told you”.

A popular design is the “Curves and Swerves” acrylic templates which are used to easily make perfect curves.
