About the workshops
Brandon and Kaffe’s workshops are primarily about learning confidence in color choice and placement and are suitable for beginners who know how to use a rotary cutter and sew a seam. They are also for more advanced quilt makers who wish to concentrate on complex color development.
Things to consider before the class
Brandon and Kaffe want you to choose your own color palette, so decide whether you want your palette cool or warm, pastel, jewel-toned or dark and brooding. This is your quilt – your choice. Then choose a few fabrics in your chosen theme that you love and want to use. Also, give some thought to the progression of color and scale you would like to see emanate through your quilt.
On the day of the workshop, you will be able to select from a whole range of fabrics through Quilt-agious, brought to the workshop. Brandon & Kaffe will be able to assist participants in choosing fabrics to use in their quilt. Come to class prepared to try out several options.
Please do all of your cutting during the workshop, not before.
Workshop Space
On the day you will have table space for cutting and wall space for laying out your quilt. Remember to bring or buy your mat, ruler and rotary cutter.
PLEASE NOTE: No sewing takes place during the workshop.
