We Heard You  OR  Did you Know   

This interesting little quilt came in as Page's Choice.  She took one look and said this needs a semi-custom design to complement the light and dark areas.

How classic is this?  An Amish based design with simple squares and large borders.  

This is just a great quilt.  Good graphics, simple colors, dotted fabrics that play well together.  As Mary Ellen Hopkins used to say "It's just kindergarten designs....let the fabric do the work for you" .... placement is everything

Our In-Studio classes are set up to run from 9 am to 4 pm with a break for lunch.  Typically the morning is spent in a presentation style and the afternoon is spent in a hands on practice quilt.  We often use Quilts of Valor for our demo quilts, or you can bring a small quilt for practice purposes.

We are located just off 35E and Cliff Road in Eagan about 10 miles south of the airport and the Mall of America.  We have 4 Gammill machines all running on Statler for workshops and demos and a Gammill Elevate that can be use for task specific classes.  There are multiple restaurants and hotels within walking distance.  In addition, we have both a full service quilt shop across the road plus a boutique shop that features quilts and kits next door.

This is a 2-day hands on class.  Plan to bring a lunch or we can order lunch from a local restaurant.  You will work on your own machine with a “sample” quilt.  The cost for this class is $150 for the 2 days. There is a $25 supply fee or bring your own fabric: 

• 2 pieces of fabric – 2 yards each

Donation Sunday                                                                                     July 28^th  (Sun)

On Sunday, July 28^th  we will be hosting our 3^rd Donation Sunday.  This is an opportunity for our renters, to gain experience in loading quilts on the frame, setting up the patterns and running/advancing the quilts to complete them.  As there is no charge to you for this "practice session" we are requiring that the quilts are for donation only. 

In 2018, The Quilting Page provided quilting services for 32 twin long quilts (70" x 90") for the young adult homeless programs in Eagan thru Wilder Foundation and Community Development Agency at Lincoln Place and thru The Link which services a number of living locations throughout the metro area.  Additionally, we provided quilting services for a number of Quilts of Valor quilts throughout the year.  At this time we have quite a number of quilt tops ready for final quilting and binding in preparation for donation.

If you have a quilt top, batting or backing fabric that you would like to donate (or contribute to), as long as it is going to a recognized charitable program, we can try to include it in this or future Donation Sundays.

On Sunday, July 28^th , we will have 5 quilts to load and complete.  Additionally, we will work on machine applied bindings and splicing together batting remnants for use in the donation quilts.  We open the doors by 10 am and stay until about 5 pm but it is very much of an open flow of when you are available not a required starting or stopping times.  This can be a time for you to gain experience and chat with other quilters.  Please let me know if you are available or want to be added to the list of first invited in the future - we will be doing this again in the future every couple of months.

You can register for the class by email at pagej@thequiltingpage.com or by phone at 651-214-4545

Forty five dollars ($45) for this evening class.  This is a presentation class with use of the SAM mode of Creative Studios 7, so bring a laptop (with Creative Studios 7 loaded with a wired mouse).  You can register for the class by email at pagej@thequiltingpage.com or by phone at 651-214-4545

Beyond E2E – Repeat Pattern              Cancelled                                                  August 17^th  (Sat)

Edge-to-Edge is a quick and effective technique for quilting those simple quilts.  You let the computer decide the size and repeats of the pattern to be used.  While you can do some editing to the design (stretch or squeeze), in the end you have to accept the pattern the way the computer defines it.  It is hard to nest your designs to reduce the open lines between rows and even harder to use a design with a deep nest that doesn’t match your top and bottom edges.

Repeat Pattern allows you to address each of these issues.  In this class you will learn how to:

•          size the pattern to best match your quilt piecing
•          how to bring in the pattern
•          flip it to use a left to right and the right to left stitching path
•          nest the pattern to achieve that uniform overall look
•          take the pattern out over the edge of the quilt to ensure all edges are secure
•          fill the pattern to your boundary
•          eliminate the pattern distortion (circles becoming ovals) that often happens in Edge-to-Edge
•          relocate your patterns as you advance for a seamless design

We will be working with Creative Studio 7.  You need to bring a laptop (with Creative Studios 7 loaded with a wired mouse) and a small lap sized (no larger than 50x60) quilt to load and work on.  We do have a Quilt of Valor quilt you can stitch out if you do not have a small quilt.

The cost for this class is $125 for the day. Bring a lunch or plan to join the group in ordering a lunch from a local restaurant.  You can register for the class by email at pagej@thequiltingpage.com or by phone at 651-214-4545.

Semi Custom (Page Turner & The Lite & the Dark of Log Cabins)         September 21^st (Sat)

Most quilts are happy with Edge-to-Edge but sometimes you want something a little more special.  Free motion is great, but maybe an intense custom design is not what you are ready for.  This class will show you how to use the Statler system to design a semi-custom quilt that will stitch out row-by-row.  Design selection and placement on the quilt can create the impression of very complex custom quilting with the advantage of the computer aided stitching.  Save yourself time, get the quilt completed and look like a custom quilting hero.
