SUMMARY:Jennifer Wagner
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Quilts In Color: 5 Creative Strategies for Color Confidence \n\n\n\nOne of the most exciting things about quilting is how a few simple tweaks—rotate a block\, flip the contrast\, shrink or blow up a print\, or splash in unexpected colors—can completely transform a design. That creative magic is what sparked Quilts in Color\, an engaging\, interactive lecture all about bringing your quilts to life through intentional color choices. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we’ll dive into five accessible\, eye-opening strategies for playing with color—whether you’re working from a pattern or designing your own. You’ll walk away inspired and empowered\, ready to look at every quilt pattern through a fresh lens and make it unmistakably you. \n\n\n\nParticipants will: \n\n\n\n\nExplore five different methods of creating color palettes\n\n\n\nReceive a free downloadable packet of quilt designs featured in the lecture\, perfect for practicing the color strategies we explore together and continuing the fun at home!\n\n\n\nUse those methods to color quilt designs and discover what inspires their personal style\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Jennifer: \n\n\n\nJen Wagner is a quilt pattern designer and instructor from Las Vegas\, NV\, with a background as a women’s health nurse practitioner and certified nurse midwife. After decades of helping women make informed health decisions\, she now has the joy of helping quilters create quilts they love. Her patterns blend modern and traditional techniques while embracing bold design and vibrant color. Teaching quilters the techniques she uses in her patterns – curved piecing\, foundation paper piecing\, and reverse appliqué – has been incredibly rewarding. She loves seeing the moment when everything clicks and they fall in love with the process. At Snapdragon Quilting\, she not only designs quilt patterns but also curates gorgeous quilt kits and stocks all her favorite notions to make the quilting process smoother and more enjoyable. This year\, she’s honored to be a Benartex Ambassador and has loved working with their team and beautiful fabrics—it’s been such an exciting adventure! \n\n\n\nJennifer’s 2026 calendar includes Lectures\, Workshops and Demos at Road 2 California in Ontario CA\, the Rusty Barn Quilt\, Craft & Sewing Festival in Phoenix AZ\, Quilt Con by the Modern Quilt Guild\, the Pamela Mae Quilt Retreat at Stitchin’ Heaven in Quitman TX\, Fiber + Fabric Craft Festival by H+H Americas in Rosemont IL\, Quilt Show Reno in Reno NV\, as well as quilt guilds across the country from Florida to Washington and much more. \n\n\n\nSpecial WSQ SaleJennifer is doing a sale for our guild. With the purchase of two patterns\, get one free (includes both printed and PDF patterns). Use coupon code B2G1WSQ at checkout\, expires July 31\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Cheryl Clossin
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: How I quilt my heavily appliqued and embellished quilts \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Cheryl: \n\n\n\nCheryl started quilting in 1998 when she wandered into the Quilting Bee to buy fabric to make kitchen café curtains and saw a fusible applique block of the month. She had never made a quilt block and never appliqued but her love of applique was firmly cemented after that class. \n\n\n\nShe has been a member of Washington State Quilters since approximately 1999. Her passion is needle turn applique\, wool applique and art quilts. \n\n\n\nCheryl also loves wool applique and adding embellishment stitches to all her wool projects\, even primitive wool applique. \n\n\n\nAfter paying to have her first quilts quilted\, she took a few classes on machine quilting on a domestic machine and now machine quilts all her projects so she can create detailed and intricate quilting designs with thread that enhances her applique and embellishments. She currently quilts on a Bernina Q20 which is non-moveable (she moves the quilt not the machine). \n\n\n\nWhile Cheryl doesn’t currently have a website\, she can be found on social media at the following addresses:Instagram: @cherylmc9YouTube: glamquilter8

SUMMARY:Jean Impey
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: “All about Fabric: An Insider’s Look into the Textile Industry” Delve into the fabric industry\, including insights on batiks\, flat printed\, and digital fabrics\, drawing from my experience with Hoffman Fabrics. \n\n\n\nAbout Jean: \n\n\n\nArt has been an integral part of my life since I was a child. I remember always being intrigued and absorbed with making things. My mother encouraged my exploration of all things creative and my life-long creative journey took off including painting\, sewing\, photography\, ceramics\, embroidery\, gardening just to name a few. \n\n\n\nMy essence is defined by boundless style\, unbridled passion\, and inexhaustible energy. I thrive on the thrill of discovery\, the beauty in observation\, and the perspectives of others. Every moment is an opportunity for me to engage with the world through artistic expression. \n\n\n\nIn my realm\, there’s no notion of “doing it wrong”; creativity knows no boundaries. I resonate with Albert Einstein’s wisdom: “The easiest way to be creative is to try something different\, even if doubt lingers.” \n\n\n\nI eagerly anticipate the chance to share my unique narrative\, creative endeavors\, and unwavering passion with you. \n\n\n\nVisit Jean’s website: SewJean.com

SUMMARY:Kristin Echols
DESCRIPTION:Kristin has been teaching Quilt-As-You-Go patterns and techniques for over 15 years. Not everyone has a longarm or wants to send out their quilt tops to be quilted. Using the Quilt-As-You-Go technique\, quilts can be quilted in smaller\, manageable sections that are more easily maneuvered under your domestic sewing machine. In her lecture “A Lesson in Every Quilt”\, Kristin will share the lessons she has learned in her quilting journey. Some will be familiar to you\, some may be new\, and others will have you shaking your head and wondering “when will she learn”! \n\n\n\nVisit Kristin’s website: KristinLaura.com
