Color Sense (09/11/2026)

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:00:00 GMT

"Color Sense"

Annieʼs most popular Workshop!

Every quilter thinks that they have a problem with color – when in fact, they need to know more about fabric. Learn exactly what draws the eye to interesting quilt designs and patterns, giving them life.

We discuss keys to effective fabric selection in the Color Sense workshop, a no-sew, hands-on workshop with a demo where we play with fabric and learn the best tools to assist in our quest for color, and students build paste-up blocks from their stash.

Learn to apply design rules when choosing fabrics for quilts to enhance your own color and fabric intuition. Students create a resource binder that they will use again and again.

Understanding the points taught in this workshop will make all the difference in your future quilts and give you a new sense of color confidence.
