Lectures
Seamingly Scrappy Trunk Show
Let me take you through the process of how I came up with the Seamingly Scrappy Technique and the array of quilts found in my first book. This fun yet informational session will talk about my love of scraps, working in the quilt shop with my Mom and how all of this led me to the journey of writing my first book. I'll fill you in on tips and tricks I've learned as well as share my experiences with you. With many quilts to share, this talk usually takes around an hour depending on the participation from the audience.
Workshops
*Basic sewing skills including machine piecing and rotary cutting experience is required for all classes.
Aura
6 Hour Class
All Skill Levels
Grab a charm pack or some of that ever growing stash and learn to make this wonderful optical illusion of a quilt. Learn how to create the illusion of curved piecing with simple elements that may already be familiar to you. This quilt may be small, but it packs a punch with the impact it gives.

Woodland Sunset

Coinage
6 Hour Class
All Skill Levels
Are you afraid to be scrappy? Do you like random as long as it's controlled? Then this is the class for you. In this class you'll learn the basics of achieving true scrappy style and learn first hand how to master the Seamingly Scrappy Technique. (Seamingly Scrappy book required)
Roll of Stamps
6 Hour Class
All Skill Levels
Do you have a jelly roll sitting around collecting dust? Who doesn't?! Bring it with you to this fun class to learn the faster and much easier way to create a traditional postage stamp block with a twist. This class could also work great as a strip swap between the group to help tackle those stashes at home. Think of it as the quilter's version of take a penny, leave a penny!

Scheduling & Other Information
I would love to hear from you to either schedule an event or to answer any questions you may have. To contact me, you can call my office at 440-428-5780 or e-mail me at rubybluequilts@gmail.com. Just remember that with my crazy schedule and timing, it is much easier to reach me by e-mail as I can usually check it several times a day, even while I'm traveling. If you need to call and leave a message, please feel free to do so and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Currently the fee for a lecture is $200 but if you book a lecture and a workshop, the fee for the lecture reduces in price to $175. All workshops work best with a group up to 15 people and are priced at $400 or $40 per student (whichever is greater). Larger classes can be accommodated for up to 20 people.
Traveling to and from your event will require clear and up to date addresses and information. If I can travel by car to your event, the round trip mileage will be billed at the IRS rate in effect at the time of the event. If the distance is too great for car travel and would require so, flight arrangements will be discussed and booked with the best fare I can find. I have an array of airports to choose from and will choose the best option to get myself as well as my quilts in optimum condition to you. If flying your event is required, I would appreciate being picked up and transported to and from the airport and event. During my time with your group, if an overnight stay is scheduled, a hotel room and meals will also be the responsibility of the hosting group.
