October 14, 2026 - Kathy Tucker
We are excited to welcome Kathy Tucker of K&S Quilting, a certified Studio 180 Design instructor. Kathy will present a trunk show and demonstration showcasing the versatility and precision of Studio 180 rulers, along with inspiring examples of quilts and block designs created using these innovative tools.
On October 15, Kathy will lead a hands-on workshop focused on mastering Studio 180 rulers and learning how to use them to create accurate pieced units. Using these units as a foundation, Kathy will demonstrate a variety of beautiful block designs and share a specially digitized pattern created with EQ8, as well as additional pattern ideas from Studio 180 Design.
This workshop is designed to provide participants with practical, technical training that improves piecing accuracy while building confidence in using Studio 180 tools for future projects. Quilters will leave with a greater understanding of how to incorporate these rulers into patterns and quilt-making, along with new ideas and techniques to enhance their quilting journey.
Kathy is committed to making the day both educational and enjoyable, ensuring that participants gain valuable skills while having fun. As a courtesy to workshop attendees, she will also offer Studio 180 tools at a 10% discount during the workshop.
Workshop Location: To be determined.

November 18, 2026 Janet K. Shawgo
Guest Speaker Spotlight: Author Janet K. Shawgo
We are delighted to welcome author Janet K. Shawgo of Galveston, Texas, to our guild for a special presentation inspired by her latest book, My Sister's Quilt.
An accomplished writer since 2009, Janet has published eleven novels. Her newest book, My Sister's Quilt, is a collection of eight short stories that celebrate the powerful connection between quilts and family history. Through stories of cherished moments, beloved family members, and treasured traditions, Janet explores how quilts become more than fabric and thread—they become keepers of memories and storytellers across generations.
During her presentation, Janet will share the inspiration behind My Sister's Quilt, discuss the meaningful role quilts have played in her own family, and reflect on how quilting can serve as a beautiful way to document and preserve our personal histories. Her presentation will allow plenty of time for questions and conversation with guild members.
Join us for an engaging and heartwarming program that reminds us that every quilt has a story—and every stitch helps preserve a family's legacy.
