Workshops are in addition to our programs put on by the speakers we bring to our monthly meetings. Extend your knowledge and take full advantage of your membership by participating in as many workshops as you can!

 Members can sign up for a workshop at the monthly meeting, on this website, or by mail, as soon as the workshop has been posted. Non-members can take workshops when space is available.

Workshop fees are indicated in the workshop description. The individual workshop fees are determined by the cost of the instructor, the cost to bring them to the Bay Area, any special equipment requirements, and how many students are necessary to make the workshop happen. We want to be able to bring in the best instructors at the lowest cost possible for our members.

Cancellation Policy:

A full refund will be given for cancellations 30 days prior to the workshop, or if your place can be filled from the waiting list. If it is less than 30 days before the workshop and your place cannot be filled, you must find your own replacement or forfeit the registration fee.

    Collage Heart or Wreath with Alethea Ballard

    Beginning with a fabric with a smiling face, a pretty bird, or a central image of your choice, you will fuse, cut and press to create a small fabric collage. Althea will share her working style in which she creates unique, meaningful, and sometimes unhinged, collaged vignettes. Using scale, color and value to tell a story are at the heart of this process. Alethea will discuss finishing options and a demonstration of quilting the completed works. 

    Optional Kit from Teacher - $45 (pay at the workshop).
