David Owens Hastings: Inspired by Architecture Workshop

September 28, 2025

October 18 @ 9:30 am 4:00 pm

David Owen Hastings, modern quilter, graphic designer and teacher, will guide you through a creative process for designing your own modern abstract quilts, taking inspiration from architectural photos. You will learn the quilt-as-you-go method, sewing the top pieces, batting and backing simultaneously. You’ll then add texture and complexity with David’s unique approach to walking foot machine quilting where the quilting lines become a major design element.

This is an all-levels, 6-hour workshop. You should be comfortable using your sewing machine, and it should be in good working order. Basic knowledge of walking foot quilting is helpful, but not necessary. A materials list will be sent to paid workshop attendees.

Cost: $75 for members, $85 for non-members
