The following is a list of programs and workshops currently available from EvaPaige Quilt Designs and a brief description of each. Trunk shows and workshops are available in New York and New England.
A lively presentation of Beth’s quiltmaking journey, from her first frighteningly awful attempt at self taught quilting to eventually founding EvaPaige Quilt Designs with her own line of unique patterns. Included are thoughts on the design process as it unfolds in 20 minute increments in the midst of the chaos of running a home and raising three small children, how a quilt can be a thing of beauty even without matching seams and perfect points, and the many joys of bringing her designs to the masses and discovering that they often can become converts to the freeing idea that “perfection is overrated”. Lots of quilts, no slides. Lecture Fee: $275
