One of the mandates of the Victoria Quilters Guild is education about quilting. To this end the Workshop Committee schedules Workshops with locally, nationally, and internationally recognized quilting teachers.
Policy For Workshop Attendance In order to encourage the sharing of teachers and resources among interested local guilds we have instituted the following policy regarding attendance at workshops.
Workshops will be offered first to VQG members.
One month prior to the workshop date, attendance will be opened to members of other fiber and fabric guilds (West Shore, MQG, Embroiderers Guild, Up Island Guilds for example) at the same price (assuming there are still available seats).
Non guild members will also be allowed to sign up one month before the date, (assuming there are still seats available). They will be charged a 10% surcharge.
Please contact us with questions, comments, and suggestions for workshop topics or teachers. workshops@victoriaquiltersguild.org

Luminary – Mae Petersen
Cost: $65.00
Location: Church of the Advent, 510 Mt View Ave., Victoria BC
Luminary is a new take on a traditional lone star quilt, but with a modern improv twist. The colour movement from the center to the tips is really spectacular! Luminary is a fast and easy quilt that is fun to create and will impress all your quilty friends!
Easy Strip Quilting Method, so there are NO tiny pieces!
Only need to match 3 seams in the entire quilt!
Tells you exactly how to pick colours that will make this quilt shine!
Perfect for scraps, fat 8th or fat quarter bundles, jelly rolls, and layer cakes
Comes together quickly, so you’re more likely to actually finish it!
Because of the improv nature, you don’t need to be super accurate for most of the cutting and seam allowances, making this relaxing, fast, and fun to create! It’ll still look good even if you can’t sew a straight line to save your life!
VERY Beginner-friendly, despite looking extremely complicated.
Pattern required, once registered, check with Mae to obtain pattern.
