| Instructor Bio: | Message from Sheree Watt, Instructor: I first fell in love with sewing cards in the 1950’s, started machine sewing at age 10, and have been consumed by quilting for 40+ years. During that time, I have taught children and adults to quilt and sew in the classrooms and informally, including presentations on related topics to various quilt groups in the area. My passion is to teach others to quilt and sew using the best techniques for the best outcomes. My philosophy is that quilting and sewing should be “no judgment” |
