My Class With Master Quilter Sharon Schamber

Northern Illinois Longarm Guild brought Sharon in for a day to go over show to design your quilt.   A Master Quilter she is .....   I was in such awe of her work,  unbelievable, jaw dropping work.   She shared her new creation that she has been working on since February,   another award in the future.   I was just lost for words,   the only word that kept coming out of my mouth was  WOW!  LOOK AT THIS!   WOW!
My friend Coleen who went to the class with me would look at me and  WOW!  would come out of our mouth together.
As for the class, it  was so informative,  my brain ached by the end of the day with so much more  information from her.    She is so down to earth and fun to be around,  wished she would have been my big sister.....   (I grew up with four brothers) .    Here are some show & tell pictures....   Enjoy!!


Out side the doors of the class room they were anxiously waiting for the moment for the doors to open


                                Setting up the room......  Deb and Sharon loading the machine

                                               Still waiting....
Finally the doors open .......



                                                          Deb introducing Sharon


                                                                 The class begins...

Sharon looking up info for Terry......  No!  that's not wine,  it's water . 

She is soooooo much fun to be around,  love her sense of humor
Ohhhhhh,   my head hurt,  felt like it was going to burst with so much info.

                                                                   Show N  Tell




I showed my quilt from her online class, which she love and gave a great comment



This is just a few of  Sharon's new creation



                                     look at the detailed applique work,  it is so tiny,  amazing!!


These are just a few of the 186 pictures that I look that day.

Thank you Sharon for all the wonderful information you shared with us that day.
