Wool Applique Class with Patricia Sanabria-Friederich of PGT Designs

April 11 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

$110.00

Our guest artist and instructor, Patricia Sanabria-Friederich of PGT Designs (Patterns from Grandma’s Trunk), is a talented designer and instructor currently based in Denver Iowa, where she lives with her husband. Patricia was born in Costa Rica and says she was fortunate to have had sewing classes in elementary school. Through those classes, along with instruction from her mother and grandmother, she learned sewing at a young age. Following a move to Wisconsin in the mid 90s, she took her first formal quilting class. 

In 2013 her first book, Mosaic Tile Quilts, was published by Landauer Publishing. The book features designs inspired by mosaic tile floors from historic buildings in Costa Rica. Her passion for designing did not wane. She has continued to design quilts, table runners and wallhangings, with her latest designs utilizing handwork techniques like wool applique and embroidery. “I really enjoy sewing by hand,” says Sanabria-Friederich. This is evidenced in her growing selection of beautiful handwork designs. 

Patricia enjoys visiting guilds and quilt groups. She has presented and done workshops in Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota and South Carolina. Once a year she travels back to Costa Rica and gives classes at her family’s quilt shop. “I have been lucky enough to have my designs on display at the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts and Fiber Arts. I have also had my designs regularly published in Primitive Quilts & Projects, and my quilt design, Shades of Blue, was in the Paducah semi finals.”

We are excited to welcome Patricia Sanabria-Friederich to QUILT AMANA 2024. There will be 25 slots available in her Jacobean Table Mat Wool Applique Class on April 11th, 2024  in the Carding Studio at the Hotel Millwright. Class fee (includes lunch) is $110. Patricia will also have a booth with all of her wonderful patterns and kits at QUILT AMANA 2024.
