Workshop/Lecture Fees for 2010 –2011

 Due to the price of everything going up my prices for 2010 –2011 have gone up to keep pace with the economy, which sucks.
 
Lectures:
  • “Discover the Artist Within” – PowerPoint - 1 hour - $475
  • “Discover the Artist Within through Quilts and Wearable Arts”,  LIVE Trunk Show/ Fashion Show - 1 hour - $450 + shipping of quilts and garments. 
I love to do a fashion show/trunk show, it is a quality show, but travelling with the garments and quilts incur an extra cost.  I can adapt it to fit your guild's needs but you need to work that out with me before the contracts are signed.  Only you and your guild knows your budget, so take that into consideration when choosing a lecture and price.  I do give you my best.

          If you choose the Fashion Show I will need 4 models size 8,10 or 12. They need to be at least 5’4” tall as some of my garments are long. Please let the models know that some of the garments are complete outfits so they will wear the proper undergarments. This is a fun and easygoing fashion show so any age of models is welcome and enjoyed.  If you have trouble finding enough models I will help you pull from the audience on lecture night.

One quilt rack for display is to be provided by the event or guild.

 

 Workshops:

 “Fabulous Fusible Flowers” - 1 day, 6 hours class - $700.  Your choice of 5 flower patterns.
  • Geranium
  • Sunflower
  • Coneflower
  • Summer Rose  Coming Soon!
  • Yellow Daises  Coming Soon!
This is for up to 20 students. Extra students may be added if room size permits at a cost of $20 extra per additional student.
Supply lists can be downloaded from the web site  Workshop & Lecture Fees
There is a pattern and kit fee of $15 per student to be paid in class to the instructor.   These cover cost of materials, labor and employee fees to cut and prepare kits for the classes. A "head count" of attendees is necessary in advance to insure shipping adequate numbers of kits for the workshop. If kit fees are collected from students at time of registration, they will be paid to the instructor on the day of the class.
 
Room requirements:
Please register students with consideration for sufficient classroom space! It is important that the students have enough space to lay out there work. 2 students sharing a 6’ - 8’ table is great.
There needs to be an iron and ironing board for every 6 students. (Irons blow fuses. Please make sure someone knows where the electrical breakers are. We can't work without irons.)
Individual irons on each tables are OK but take up a lot of space so please take that into consideration when planning for your workshops. Large trash cans or large trash bags are needed at each table. There are a lot of fabric and paper scraps generated by Fusible Flowers.
1-2 large tables for my class supplies and products. The products I bring to sell pertain to the workshop.

Full payment needs to be made at the end of the workshop.

 

Lodging and travel:

Travel, lodging and meals will be provided by the guild or organization. I will make those arrangements after contacting group for details and will find the most affordable fare available at that time.  

I request a non-smoking private hotel room for lodging. If no suitable hotel lodging is available, please provide a private room and bath in the home of a qualified, reliable member. I am very allergic to cats. So no cats, please.

 Retreats:

This is a in-depth workshop that allows the student to use there own photo and translate it into an art quilt. I have designed a limited addition pattern design exclusively for retreats.
For retreat pricing please contact me.
 
 
I look forward to being with you group. If you have any question or concerns please email me. If you have other shops or guilds you would like to work with let me know. I am here to help.
