Registration is Ongoing!

I am happy to say that registration for my Fall Quilt Whisperer Online class is filling fast!  I am excited to see so many sit down quilters sign up, too, who finish their quilts using a  domestic sewing machine (DSM).  I designed my class to help all machine quilters- from those who use their home sewing machine to longarm users who quilt for clients.  I have even had a hand quilting student in a previous class, too.

To register for my Fall Online Quilting Class, called Quilt Whisperer 101, simply click on this sentence. (Note: Registration is now closed!  Thanks you, Carla)

If you need more information about the 3 week class, you may click the tab above that reads, “next class.”  That will give you information about this class on quilt design.  I developed it after discovering that many quilters struggle with the idea of what to quilt on a quilt.

The class will be held on my new site:

Thanks for your support with my new endeavor.  Hugs, Carla

January Class Sneak Peek

I am teaching another Quilt Whisperer quilting design online class beginning January 11th through January 29th, 2010.  The class is being hosted by Machine Quilters Resource.

This class is all about creativity and quilting design.  Do you struggle to know what to quilt on any quilt?  Does the stand and stare method for choosing quilting design not work very well for you?  Then this class is just what you need.  It is open to all machine quilters- from quilting on a domestic home machine to midarm and longarm machines.  My class was written for all student levels- from beginner to advance.

Each week, for 3 weeks, I will post a lesson, an outline, and also have some videos to accompany each lesson.  I include lots of visuals into my class, including these sneak peek views:

I also have some fun Creative Exercises each week, here is a picture of how I completed one of the exercises:

Of course, I also sprinkle some of my cartoons throughout the Lessons, too:

Here are some rave reviews from students in my first online class:

“Wonderful class for newbies and seasoned quilters. I’ve been longarm quilting 4 years and was getting in a rut of quilting the same thing over and over. This class got the creative juices flowing and I can think about little else beside going home to quilt all these new designs!!
This was a wonderful class and I put it at the top of my list as the best longarm class I have had.  I’ve taken classes at the APQS showroom, MQS, Innovations and online. This one was hands down the best.”  – Debbi

“Carla, I just wanted to say thanks again for all that I have learned through this class. I have learned so much more than just quilting design—so many tips and ways to PPP or visualize what is in my head and how to approach the business end of it. And the tablet—woohoo! Most importantly, I have gained confidence. Thanks.”   -Mel

“Carla’s class was great! And her interaction with the students was wonderful. Did you sit in front of your computer the entire 3 weeks, Carla? You are an excellent instructor and I am looking forward to having more classes with you.”   – Helia

Quilt Whisperer Online Class

Wow, I am speechless (well, almost…LOL) with the overwhelming response to my online quilting class on Machine Quilters Resource.  Suzanne (site owner) will be counting numbers, but I do know that the class is very very closed to being full.   The website will let everyone know when they stop accepting sign-ups, all the details are organized by the site.  I just wanted to thank everyone who signed up and tell you how much I appreciate the faith you have in me as a teacher.

I have received questions from potential students in other countries. There are a number of international students in my class, I know, so if there is still an opening when you go to the site, MQR has a process for handling different currencies.  If you go to the site and have any questions, you can ask the site administrators.

Thank you, once again, for signing up- or expressing an interest in my class on quilting design.  I feel passionate about the subject and look forward to sharing my approach with everyone who signed up.    Hugs, Carla
