Heather Kojan, Speaker
Speaker: Heather Kojan Lecture: Quilt Remix
Do you struggle with UFOs, orphan blocks, or projects that have you asking “what was I thinking?” This is the lecture for you! Heather will discuss all the things on your quilt to do list and inspire you to work with what you have. You’ll learn ways to tame your unfinished projects and utilize those lonely blocks lying around your sewing room. Come to find ideas, fun, and lots of laughs as you release some guilt and learn new ways to finish what you started. Supplies are not required for a lecture, although you may want to bring a pen and paper to take notes

Workshop
​Half-Day Workshop in the afternoon: Modern String Quilts
Have scraps taken over your sewing space? Let Heather show you how to use scraps for good! You’ll love bringing new life to your fabric by building simple, beautiful blocks. Heather will take you step- by-step as you create blocks for two different stash-busting quilts! By utilizing negative space, these scrappy quilts will look sleek and sophisticated with a fun, modern vibe. Go ahead and conquer your stash with Heather!
