2026 April Guild Meeting: Managing Unfinished Quilts with Emma Jane Powell

Managing Unfinished Quilts

Dream It * Quilt It

With Emma Jane Powell

Program Description:  Let’s face our unfinished projects.  This fun, self-deprecating, and interactive lecture will jump start your drive to change the pending status of ongoing sewing projects.  We will dive deep into why these projects are on the backburner, and learn how to proceed with quilts you may have lost your enthusiasm for, or would love to finally finish.  You will be given action items to work towards managing your current WIP, and strategies to stop UFOs before they start.  A bundle of downloadable PDF printables to accompany action items are included in the program.

Bio: Continuing a family legacy of quilting for over 25 years, Emma Jane has tried it all, and she loves every step of the quilting process.  A career public school ESL teacher for many years, she jumped ship after having a baby in her 40s, and now teaches quilting.  Seeing her passion for quilting reflected in a student’s work is truly an honor.
