Samples for a workshop
 

I'm giving a talk and workshop in the near future and I wanted to have some samples of easy landscapes.
Most of those who attend a workshop want something they can actually finish so some of the multi day pieces and techniques are out of the question. These 2 pieces, examples of the same style, Collage and Raw Applique worked up quickly and were easily completed on a second day with a few hours.
Any comments?

Lovely! Maybe one day I'll give these techniques a go...

Very nice, and I would like attempting one someday.

Great samples I am sure they could be completed in the allotted time!! Would love to take this workshop!!!

Beautiful landscape quilts.

those are lovely. a local gal does lots of white birch, so that doesn't thrill me. so if i were to take the workshop, i'd definitely choose the green trees.

My gosh, you do beautiful work!! I can't imagine doing something like that. Great job!

Very lovely samples. I would love to take your class.

lovely work

I like them both and seem very doable

Those can be done in a day? Wow!

Very nice!

Your samples are beautiful. I wish I could be in your class! The techniques look to be fun to do. I made a collage quilt for a granddaughter who lives in Ottawa and it was so much fun to do. You are very talented and it is great that you are so willing to share with others.

I agree with purpledog, your samples are terrific and I bet you teach a fun class. Nice of you to share your talents with other quilters.

A class in Guelph???? Do tell!!

Actually it's for the Dufferin Piecemakers guild in Orangeville.
If you're not far from Guelph you should consider joining our guild, Royal City Quilters Guild. RCQG. Always room for one more.
PM me if you'd like more info

Both are lovely! I’m not sure of the question you posed...if you’re asking which one is a favorite...I like both and would be influenced by the season for choice. So right now, it would be the evergreens. Is it possible to allow both choices or would that present too many problems?

Yes!!! I am a member of the Dufferin Piecemakers guild and we are looking forward to your presentation and workshop! I am especially excited since I attended your presentation in Guelph last Christmas. I know which of the two samples I will opt for at the workshop. Your birch trees have always fascinated me. Just hope Mother Nature doesn't throw me a curve ball, since I have a fair distance to travel.

I really love these. I'd love a go at it.

Your work is always so beautiful. I wish I lived nearby and could attend a class.

Darn, too far, especially a this time of year.
Your work is so beautiful.Love both samples, but lean towards the birch trees.

Great idea for something beautiful that can be accomplished quickly!

You know, there is nothing wrong with your copying something you see. If you were working from a photo that's what you'd do. When you're trying something new or for the first time examine other's work and try to duplicate it. That's what you'd be doing at most workshops.

Well I'm trying to give you lots of options, catering to different strengths and abilities.

Love your samples and like many others, I wish I could take your class. However, I think the commute from Houston, TX, would be a bit much!

Like them both and sure wish I was going to be in your class.

They are both great....I love the first one.

Just lovely! What an artist eye you have!

Love both quilts, but the first one is my favorite. I just finished a very complicated applique. Trying to resize the picture so I can post it. With the last update to windows 10, you no longer use paint.

They are both lovely. Your students will have a hard time deciding which one they prefer.

Great samples for your workshop. Wish I could be there - your artistic sensibilities might rub off on me!

Great inspiration and samples for a task I want to undertake

Class Samples
 

They are both great inspirations, and I have done lots of raw edge appliqué -- and taught it, too. Wish you were closer so I could take your class!

That workshop sounds like so much fun, but TN is a bit of a long commute! Hope everyone enjoys the class.

I'd take the workshop in a NY minute!

Edited to add that the samples show a quick way to use the technique but I bet the way you teach it will give the attendees the foundation to attempt something more complex that we have grown accustomed to seeing from you.
