    The St. Louis MQG announces 

    An Evening with Kitty Wilkin of Night Quilter

    Quilt Your Life: Milestone Quilts for Every Moment

    What do you get when you combine journaling with quilting, and add a little bit of photography? Milestone quilts! Come explore the world of quilts created to mark milestones, and see why these quilts are a fun and meaningful solution to joyful sewing in this busy world. Join Kitty as she shares her journey through the world of milestone quilts, beginning with the milestone quilt she created for her third child to mark his first year of life, and including many other life events that can be documented through the creation of a quilt—from family adventures to miles run and hiked through the course of a year. Leave feeling inspired and ready to document your days through quilt-making, one attainable goal at a time.

    Join us for a workshop taught by Kitty Wilkin of Night Quilter

    From Watercolor to Quilt:

    Using Negative Space to Map the Melody





    Delve into the layers of your creativity with this fun exploration of moving from watercolor painting to applique quilt. Beginning with a group painting session, Kitty will guide students through the process of translating a unique watercolor painting into mini quilt form using fusible raw edge applique. With very clear guidance every step of the way, a special focus and reflection on how the use of negative space helps make these quilts sing, and particular attention to color gradients and flow, students will delight in the creative doors that are opened through learning this technique. No prior painting experience necessary, and some samples will be available for the trepid painters among us.

     Join us for a workshop taught by Kitty Wilkin of Night Quilter

    Off the Beaten Path Piecing with Improv Mountains


    Set off fearlessly with Kitty as she teaches you how to piece an improv mountain range wall hanging, full of adventurous skill building. In sewing the unique and nestled mountains, you will learn how to piece gentle improv curves, precise thin strips, and how to think through the order of operations when piecing more complex blocks. Kitty will demonstrate how to put partial seams to use, and where some pre-planning can set you up for success with off the beaten path designs. Playing with both color gradients and creative piecing methods, you will leave with more confidence to dive into improvisationally pieced quilt construction, ready to head off the grid and embrace the adventure!
