I ABSOLUTELY love working with Kaye! She is an amazing educator and person. Kaye met the challenge of the PJ party with zest and fun! We spoke about it in the afternoon, and I suggested a sleep mask on the longarm machine. Less than 24 hours later, Kaye had designed it with two different ways […]

Oh Kaye, I’m really happy I’ve enrolled in Stitchready. I attended the prostitcher and designer class at Academy and while I learned a lot I simply could not keep up with the instructor. In fact, most of us were lost through much of the class. I wasn’t completely familiar with the interface and by the […]

Thank you for offering this course. It is very well organized, and the weekly sessions are just the right amount of information to digest in one sitting. I can’t imagine trying to learn all of this in a 1 or 2 day workshop. (StitchReady Student)

I loved, loved, loved this course. It was amazing, I am actually making my own designs. I am having so much fun creating designs, that I am going to have to force myself to start stitching them. (StitchReady Student)

Ready to Make a Stunning (but easy) Quilt?

The Carpenter’s Star Quilt is a classic. It is beautiful in solids with a dark background like you see here but is equally beautiful using scrappy fabrics and a lighter background.

I developed a technique called “Controlled Chaos” that makes this quilt easy to put together in an afternoon- no matter what fabrics you are using or what size quilt you are making. It is so fun that I have personally made five.

I have taught hundreds of people to make this quilt and they all had great success. You can, too. I have the pattern available and you can add the video tutorials which will really make things clear for you.
