Quilt Finishing Fest: You’re Invited!
Aug 3rd 2023
Quilt finishing made easy!
Join us on September 7th at 9 am PT for Quilt Finishing Fest! Quilt Finishing Fest is a LIVE, virtual event for learning quilt finishing techniques and skills taught by expert instructors on Creative Spark, an online learning platform created by C&T Publishing. Get inspired by expert instructors to finish your UFOs (unfinished objects) in creative and innovative ways. You’ll also get the chance to connect with quilters worldwide!
Get ready for expert quilt finishing tips, exciting giveaways, and inspiration to finish your quilts!
The event will kick off with our keynote speaker, Christa Watson. Christa is an award-winning quilter, enthusiastic industry ambassador, modern fabric designer, and author of numerous books, articles, and patterns on piecing and machine quilting. She will set the stage for the event by sharing the importance of prepping the quilt, basting, and making a quilting plan. Best of all, you get 6 1/2 hours of quilt finishing content in four hours.
Here's how the event works:
After Christa’s keynote, choose your quilt adventure with workshop sessions by expert instructors. In each session, you can choose from three 40-minute workshop options to learn various subjects, such as binding, machine feet, basting techniques, free-motion quilting— and so much more! Whether you’re looking for new skills and techniques, technologies to explore, or inspiration for your next project, there is something for every quilter wondering how to finish their quilts.
The event has ten 40-minute workshops — all of which you have unlimited access to after the event. Choose your own adventure and pick three 40-minute workshops to watch LIVE. All workshops will be recorded and available for you to watch anytime at your own convenience. Those who attend the live portion of the event get entered into a HUGE giveaway. Creative Spark thinks everyone is a winner, so everyone gets a virtual swag bag with goodies like patterns, coupons, and so much more!
