Hello!! I hope you join me!

I am so very excited to finally be able to offer a full length retreat to you in your own home! As a National and International award winning show quilter, I have learned that sometimes, the final finishing touch is all that separates a show quilt from an award winning show quilt! Fifteen+ mix and match high-end finish details for hand finished perfection on quilts, garments, and decorative items. With techniques ranging from sweet and simple to elegant glory, you will find the perfect detail for your project.

All the Devilish Details, The Art of Fine Finishing Touches

What is included?

Lifetime access to the 3 hours and 15 minutes of packed instruction time, designed in easy play chapters for you to stop, practice, and perfect on the professional class delivery site, Teachable.com. Without the need to wait for students in class to complete samples…this is the equivalent of a three day quilting retreat! If you own my original book, The Devil is in the Details, you will find this class, and it’s print material to include about half of that book content and half all new and more advanced details, all with the benefit of live sewing. Print your own 33 pages of class materials, to take with you to your sewing machine with reinforced directions, illustrations, and tips.

So, essentially, you will receive the equivalent of an 18 hour retreat and a book!

Frequently Asked Questions


When does the course start and finish?
The course starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish.
How long do I have access to the course?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
Are there supplies for this class?
Your materials list are items that should be easily sourced at a craft store or online suppliers. Links are supplied to help with finding materials. Or, visit my shop and purchase a class kit with enough beading supplies to enjoy the class samples...it's just easy!
Do I need a special sewing machine?
No! but you will need a special foot. You will need an invisible zipper foot. This is a foot that allows you to sew directly against a zipper in garment construction, but we will sew against beads. It comes standard with most machines.
Will I be charged tax on a digital class? Why?
US and global laws are changing quickly and vary state by state with regards to sales tax on digital items. The Teachable paying platform will automatically charge the appropriate tax as it applies to an individual state's laws or country tax code. Allowing a large platform like teachable to handle changing tax laws keeps me from needing to file in multiple states or be exposed to audit.
